Quote:
As per Side by Sides of the World by Charles E. Carder there was a Springfiled Arms Co.
"It was a trade name used on Cresent Fire Arms Co double shotguns until about 1920 or 1921. This trade name was used by J. Stevens Arms Co. after 1920."

Stevens bought out Crescent and used the Springfield name until it was discontinued in 1948. The 5100 is the same as the 311 and the 530. The 315 is the same as the Riversides which Stevens also bought out.
