I have a Whippet Model C .410 shotgun, and 23 years ago my son, he was 11, lost the forearm to the gun. He is now 34 and expressed interest in the gun. I would like to be able to replace the fore piece so I can clean it up and give it to him. It was my mothers and is probably 75 to 80 years ols.

Any ideas

  H,S,B were a large Chicago wholesale hardware company, who went out of business during the depression of the early 30's. The guns they sold were inexpensive utility grade, made for them by various gun manufacturers. Since H,S,B, owned the Trade Name "Whippet", any number of different gun companies could have made it. Best thing would be to post quality close-ups photos of the gun, perhaps one of our members can recognize the manufacturer.
