I have a 16 ga. 4050, single barrel shotgun marked N.R. Davis & Sons/Davis Warner Arms Corp., another marking is Diana. Can anyone tell me how old this gun would be and what it might be worth? Thanks

  Can't give you a specific date, but it was probably made between 1917 when the Warner Arms Corp. bought the N.R. Davis & Sons Co., and 1930 when Savage purchased what was left of Warner Arms.
  Unfortunately there's very little collector interest in single barrel 16 gauge shotguns. Your shotgun has minimal value.

  Welcome to the FORUMS: Sorry about your Single Shot shotgun not being a real disirable Collectors Piece...but, Rufe-Snow made the Correct call...Just No great collector value or demand...In Real Good Condition You might get $75.00 for it....Rust, Nicks, Pits, Scratchs, Bad Bore...price goes way down.........
