I have a 20 ga pump shotgun. It is marked Westernfield (Wards. The wife bought it a couple years ago and never shoots it. NIce gun, I could hit clays with it . It is a good old gun, nothing fancy, but a great starter. I will always consider trades. $200 shipped. Feel free to make offers. Thanks Jason

Looks like a Mossberg-one of their sub-contracted runs, maybe?

My first repeater shotgun was a Westernfield very similar to this and it was just a Mossberg 500 dressed for Mongomery Wards. Very reliable gun.

To be honest, My wife bought this at a gun show a few years ago and I have no idea what choke it is. Any way to tell?

Based on that table I would guess it to be modified, but I do not Guarantee it.

it basically is a mossberg produced for wards - takes all the same parts - i've had a 12 ga . for 40 yrs . welded the barrel on twice and been thru 3 slide actions and it just got commissioned as my varmit special with a slug barrel- for my coyotes up north. shotting 00 bucks.
that gun probaly has one of 2 barrels modified or improved cylinder - both great for bird huntin. Is it the single or double bar action? Is it 2 2/3 - 3in ?
price just a tad too high for me but makes a great youth or ladies gun !! Az
