Wards did not make rifles, they only sold them under their brand. 93M-491A is actually a Mossberg 46B. The 46B was made from 1938 to 1949. This was prior to serial numbers being required on guns and it is not possible to find the exact date of manufacture.
Can't be answered without knowing who made it and the serial number. don't refinish it.
Your western Field model 93M-497A was made by the firm Mossberg.The Mossberg model 42C and your rifle are one and the same.The model 42C was made from 1938-1941 By Mossberg and Sons firearm Company.I hope that you find this info of interest.
The 93M series were Mossberg rifles. The 390A was a Mossberg 26C, made 1938-1941.
Cross reference to a Mossberg Model 46B. The Mossbergs were great target rifles. For some more info on Mossberg 22s, Google search for "Epix Mossberg Models".
