Selling my New York Arms Co - 16g - Break Action - 36" barrel - 1898 manufacture date

This was part of my father in laws collection. Letting this one go as it holds no sentimental value and I'm hoping someone has a need or desire for it.

Everything seems to function as it should. Needs to be cleaned up a bit.

Asking $100.00 O.B.O. I'm open to hear cash or trade offers.

Possible trades
- ammo in 22lr, 9mm (prefer 124gr), 223, 300blk (supers), 7.62x39, 6.5 grendel
- AR parts
- AK parts
- red dots
- ?

Any and all fees are buyers responsibility... maybe... see new info below.

EDITED TO ADD NEW INFO: Taking @Potatoman advice I tried digging deeper into this and here's what I found.

This was originally manufactured by Crescent Firearms Company. Cresent sold these to a multitude of other companies under various names. Including New York Arms Co.

H&D purchased Cresent in the late 19th century. In the 1940s all the original records were lost, making dating these difficult. A man named Joseph Vorisek later compiled a new date of manufacture list which is what is used today.

Per the dates that Mr. Vorisek came up with, this particular shotgun was manufactured in 1898. Per the 1898 rule it would be considered an antique provided it could be proven that was in fact the manufacture date.

Double check date of manufacture. It might have been made before 1899

Double check date of manufacture. It might have been made before 1899

How would I find manufacture date? If it was in fact before 1899 what would that change?

 

[Potatoman]

Anything made before that date doesn't need a background check and is technically an antique
