Central arms king nitro 12 gauge (project gun) for sale in Fort Worth Texas

$50.00

Single shot 12 gauge shotgun from the early 1900s. It has seen much better days, missing some parts on the receiver and held together with some common hardware supplies. King Nitro was a trade name used by Shapleigh Hardware, of St. Louis, MO, on shotguns made by Crescent Firearms Co.
Crescent was a decent, inexpensive gun. They started making guns around 1890. The company was bought by Stevens Arms in 1926, which was in turn bought by Savage in 1936. There was some cracks in the buttstock that was attempted to be repaired but not finished up as seen in the photos. Also the extractor seems to be stuck in place from rust or maybe a bad/missing spring? So it will not open itself up when the shot hinges open. Some parts can be found online like on ebay here and there but I keep forgetting I have this and the thought to repair passes me by, I no longer want it. Will come with a protective hard case.
