stevens gun

I have an old stevens single shot 25/20 my grandmother gave me and would like to know what it is worth if you could please. I also have a box of shells which are black powder cartridges.

hi tony,
I've been unable to find alot about the stevens but anymore information you may have and possibly a pic would be nice. I did find this.

Stevens adopted the .25-20 Single Shot, developed by J. Francis Rabbeth in 1882. The unpopularity of the bottlenecked case led Stevens around 1897 to develop the .25-21, by shortening its own .25-25 of 1895, both designed by Capt. W. L. Carpenter, 9h U.S. Infantry (This is an odd reversal of the relationship of the .38 S&W Special to the .357 Magnum.) The .25-25 would be used in Stevens' model 44 and (from 1903) model 44½ rifles.

If what you have is one of the earliest models then the price could be in the $1000s. JMHO
