This grade does not feature the rising bite featured on some higher grade Ideal guns but it does have the classic double under-bite with the true trigger plate action. Additional Makes and serial numbers will be added as the project progresses. If you discover that your sporting firearm is in the records, Griffin & Howe will be happy to verify the model, if applicable, and the date when the sporting firearm was first entered into inventory.

Alex, I just read the 21st Ed. Blue Book's sections on W.H.Baker and Baker Gun & Forging Co. and didn't see a Model B.(I do this to learn a little.)Before I assume you are referring to a W.H.Baker, what company is marked on the gun? The Baker bros. sold an interest to L.C.Smith, who dropped the Baker name in 1883. In 1888 they sold the co. to the Hunter bros. and it became Baker Gun & Forging and made the New Baker(in addition to the Ithaca.) Then Hunter Arms made the L.C.Smith for 60 yrs. until Marlin bought them in the early 40's.
Anyway, with that disclaimer, I quote: 'Baker guns were originally made in 10 and 12ga. and unusual in that the opening mechanism was operated by pressing forward on the front trigger. While relatively rare, most original Baker guns do not have a lot of original finish remaining. Most specimens are priced in the $400-850 range, assuming finish is less than 10%. If condition is better than 40%..evaluate individually.'
Under Baker Gun & Forging: 'Original damascus guns in 80% or better condition with bright case colors will approach the values of steel bbl. counterparts. Check for short chambers and make sure bbls. haven't been shortened.' The New Baker model, exposed hammers, damascus .bbl., extractors: 100%=$350 down to 60%=$150. This is the least expensive of the Baker Gun & Forging models.
Hope this helps some. John
