What is a sidelock shotgun and how does it differ from a boxlock shotgun?

A sidelock shotgun is exactly as it sounds. The locks are on the side of the stock instead of inside the action. A box lock has the hammer, sears, springs etc inside the action itself, side locks are primarily separate. They are attached to the action on the back and sides of it in the wood and the hammer, sears springs etc are contained therein. They can be detached without removing the action from the stock.


What is a baker C side by side boxlock damascus shotgun worth?

Before a value can be assessed,we must start with a more detailed description of your shotgun then you have provided.Please include the barrel length,any engraving present and where on the shotgun.Also include all inscriptions on the barrels,receiver,and boxlock action.Describe the overall condition of your shotgun including the finish remaining on the barrels and wood.The Baker shotguns were considered a American best grade shotgun.The Baker gun and Forging Company started out in 1877 thru 1888 as a venture with L.C. Smith.they made hammerless and hammer guns all the way up till 1930.these fine made guns can bring a high price if all correct and in good shape.You may want to consider having your shotgun appraised if in good condition.


What is the value of a Nitro Special 12 gauge?

John - The Nitro Special name was used by J. Stevens Arms & Tool Co. You didn't tell us what kind of a shotgun it is, but I suspect it is a break-open breech single shot or double barrel. It may have side-hammers, or a boxlock with rear hammers or a hammerless boxlock and the barrel(s) may be either laminated or fluid steel. All those things and the condition of the gun will affect the value. It MIGHT be worth $250 if it is a good to very good boxlock with fluid steel barrels or less than $10 for any variation in broken/worn out/rusted condition.

94 years old, +/- 20. If twist steel barrels and side hammers, more likely (but not absolutely) prior to WWI. If fluid steel and a boxlock (back hammers or hammerless) ALMOST certainly after c. 1905.
