CHAMPION SINGLE BARREL
1923-1978
This is the same gun as the earlier Model 36 champion except that the smaller gauges are now built on the same frame as the large gagues. See above picture for specifications. The exact year production stopped has not yet been determined. Some of these single barrel shotguns have been seen with Canadian marking, these were most likely shipped to Canada and then marked as there is no evidence that Iver Johnson's Arms & Cycle Works ever had a manufacturing factory in Canada
VALUE: 100%=$250 60%=$95
Add 15% for 24, 28 gauges
iver johnson's arms & cycle works champion single barrel shotguns with out any letters in the serial number were manufactured between 1909 and 1919. if it is marked model 36 it would be a early model and worth maybe 10% more
