I had bought several double barrels and parts from a gun store that closed down a few years ago and these were among them. They are 30 inch,steel and would like someone to identify them if possible. Thanks Thomas

Believe they are from a J Stevens Arms and Tool Co gun. Can't tell what model number though.

I agree. One of the early Hammerless J Stevens guns. Not a 5100, 311 or 315 though.

Looks like J. Stevens 355 Hammerless.

Those barrels appear to me to be from a Stevens No. 335. The No. 335 was introduced by the J. Stevens Arms & Tool Co. in 1911 --

The No. 335 was wedge-bolted in the rib extension as on these barrels. The No. 355, 365, 375 and 385 were rotary bolted through the rib extension.

The No. 335 survived WW-I and continued to be offered by J. Stevens Arms Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of Savage Arms Corp., through 1931.
