If it is a Mossberg, it was made by Mossberg. They did make guns for a number of "store brands".
USA and Mexico
Some are now made in South America.
No, right here in the USA, Conn.
No. Some are now made in South America
Most are. Some are imported and badge engineered.
In general Mossberg firearms are well made and dependable. They are not high $$$ guns, and do not have the collector appeal of other guns, but work well. Mossberg's motto has been "More gun for your money"
The Mossberg model 283 TB was made from the 1950"s to the 1970"s. They were low priced, entry level guns.
The mossberg Model 25A was made 1936-1938. They are great little guns. I hope that this helps
Several. Savage, Marlin, Mossberg, Winchester, Noble.
It was made by mossberg or savage for montgomery ward. I'm guessing the m means it was made by mossberg and if it doesn't have a serial number it is pre 1968 because mossberg didn't put serial numbers on their long guns pre that date.
Yes these were made by Mossberg, I owned a Coast to Coast Store for 25 years Bob
