J. Stevens Arms Co. combined the Davis-Warner Arms Corp. and the Crescent Fire Arms Co., both of which they acquired early in The Great Depression, as the Crescent - Davis Arms Corp. which continued in Norwich, Conn. until 1935, when it was dissolved and the remains moved to the J. Stevens Arms Co. factories in Chicopee Falls, Mass.
