To clean a Western Field 12 gauge pump shotgun M550AD, first ensure the firearm is unloaded. Disassemble the shotgun by removing the forend and barrel from the receiver, following the manufacturer's instructions. Use a cleaning rod and appropriate brush to clean the barrel, followed by a patch soaked in gun solvent to remove any residue. Wipe down the receiver and other parts with a clean cloth, lubricate moving parts with gun oil, and reassemble the shotgun.
Mossberg!AnswerSeveral different companies made 12 gauge pumps for Western Field. You must provide the model number, which should be stamped on the barrel or receiver of the shotgun. G072293
Most likely, the pump shotgun you have is a model 10. Uncheckered wood, grooved slide, value is from 150 to 300 dollars.
You have a Marlin model 1896 slide action shotgun, however, it is a Blackpowder shotgun and you will need brass hulls.
Your shotgun was made for Montgomery Wards (marked with their brand- Westernfield) by Mossberg, and is their model 550. As far as age- no way to tell. IF your shotgun does not have a serial number, it would have been made prior to 1968. <><><> Note to previous poster- Sears did not use the Westernfield brand- that belonged to Montgomery Wards. They DID use J.C. Higgins and Ted Williams as brand names.
