These old shotguns did not use model numbers for which I have found. However, that is not to say they didn't exist. There is an extensive amount of information concerning the NR Davis & Sons company on the web. The issue with these shotguns is they haven't been made in over 80 years and documentation is difficult to find including the actual serial numbers, models and value. As stated, I run across many of these shotguns during the shows and everyone seems to want $250 - $550. I have not paid more than $250 for one, but I have never seen one in very good condition. My double-barrel 410 is rated as Good condition for its age with excellent non-Damascus barrels (the damascus barrels can be dangerous to use with today's gun powder and loads).

There is no international uniformity in gun serial numbers. Besides a widespread numerical base, they may contain letters and other typographical symbols, or may consist entirely of a character string; positioning and form of such identifiers is idiosyncratic.[1][3]
The legal requirement for affixing a serial number to firearms is a relatively recent requirement, and usually applies to firearms manufactured domestically or which are imported.[4] Gun serial numbers are used in gun registration and are usually linked to an owner who is usually required to hold a firearms license.[5] In the US, federal law requires registered gun dealers to maintain records of gun serial numbers and then to report them when they are sold but federal law also prohibits creation of a national register.[6] Another form of serial number is microstamping, where the firing pin and breach face are engraved to create unique markings on the ejected cartridge; this is a legal requirement for handguns in the state of California.[7] It should also be noted that microstamping technology does not exist at this time, making it impossible to use on handguns[citation needed].
Firearms without a serial number are commonly called unmarked firearms. Firearms with removed serial numbers are generally illegal.[8] There are forensic techniques for recovering serial numbers after they have been removed.[6]
Most individual manufacturers habitually put serial numbers on the weapons they produce. Such numbers can be used to ascertain the name of the manufacture, place and date of manufacture.[3][9] At least for some manufacturers, a serial number can unlock myriad details about the weapon.[10] An example is the Winchester Repeating Arms Company; their records may not be complete. As they note:
There is probably some kernel of truth to all of them. But the fact remains; there is no original, single, totally accurate database of serial numbers from 1866 forward that we are aware of. But perhaps these pages can help you somewhat in your research.[9]
The basic point of such legislation is that the weapon will plainly have a unique identifier. Thus, for example, an importer is expressly forbidden from recycling numbers.[15] "Factory-produced firearms bear serial numbers." So factory producers and federally licensed gun dealers are required by U.S. law to maintain records for their inventory of serial numbers of all firearms and to report both the guns' serial numbers and the purchasers' names.[6][16] 2ff7e9595c
