A" designates single shot.
My father used a Wards Western Field 410 gauge repeater as a young man. The gun I believe is approximately 70-80 years old. If you have a patent number you can contact the pantent office and they should be able to tell you when the shotgun was first produced.
Can you put a scope on a western field model sd 14 a

A Savage pump 410 gauge shotgun is between 25 and 50 years old. Once a popular shotgun for recreational shooters, they are difficult to find due to their age.
Your western field shotgun was made by mossberg.This mossberg model 500B is not that old having been made from 1962-1998.At this time If you can find out when Montgomery wards went out of busines(house name for western field) and go back to 1962 you will have some idea of the age of your shotgun.
83 years old
It's pretty old. And I'll give you 100 bucks for it.
