That's some cool history you have there, so I'd recommend you keep it too. From the brief looking I did on the web, it was a hardware store gun sold in the depression era, give or take a decade so it's old. If it shoots modern length shells and doesn't have a short chamber you're good to go with modern 410 shells. I had an old 12 gauge Lefever that had short chambers and fired 2 1/2" shells, so I got rid of it for that reason as shells are hard to find. You could try to trade it but any lgs will probably offer you around a $40 bill. And that would be probably be double what someone paid for it new long ago. Might as well keep it.

Your 410 could have proof marks such as elg which means a Belgian manufacturer. Could be a Stevens, just depends on who got the contract that year. If its in good functioning condition, enjoy it. Sounds like a fun little squirrel gun. If it has any case colors left on the receiver that's just gravy!
