I can't find any Western Field Deluxe models in my lists, but M60, M61, S861, SB66, SB60A, and SB067 are all Savage 620 Deluxe or Savage 621 Deluxe models. That gun is the Lefever Nitro Special which was owned by Ithaca at time of mfg. My 12 GA has 2 ivory beads and get this--a rosewood stock. Special made gun for somebody. If you go to http.//www.e-gunpart.com/crossref.asp you will be able to cross reference from house name to manufactured name then go to websitehttp.//www.gun-data.com and you should be able to search by manufacture name and model # to findout years ffirearm was made.
Ithaca did not make any Wards Western Field Shotguns. Most were made by Stevens/Savage or Mossberg.Western Field, the Montgomery Ward brand name, should not be confused with Western Arms Company, a division of Ithaca that made shotguns that appear identical to Ithaca's Lefever Nitro Special from 1929 to 1946.
your Western field model 60 shotgun was made by savage for Montgomery Wards.The Savage model 620A is the model designation for your shotgun.If you go to savage,s web site you should be able to find the date these shotguns were made.
$200-$300 in great shape.
I would guess it was made by Stevens.
Iver Johnson made that shotgun along with some of the same type for Sears Roebuck
Lefever Nitro Special made by Ithaca. Montgomery Ward just put their name on it.

Western Field Model 60 is listed in my cross-reference list as a Savage 620A. But I can't find that Savage model in any of my books. Can you describe it a bit more - single shot, double barrel, pump, bolt action, semi-automatic? Most homeowner's insurance will not need any special coverage for a few thousand dollars worth of firearms, and any Montgomery Ward will be less than a few hundred. Anonymous - I won't say Ithaca NEVER made any Montgomery Wards guns, but there are none in my list. Give a little more description and I may be able to ID it.
Need more information. Look for a model number imprinted on the barrel or receiver. Or, send digital pictures. sales@countrygunsmith.net
your Western field model 60 shotgun was made by Savage arms for Montgomery Wards(western Field).The Savage model 620A and your shotgun are one and the same.If you go to Savage arms home page,they may be able to say when the model 620A shotgun was produced.
The High Standard Flite King Deluxe Rib 12 g was made from 1961-1966. The Deluxe II was made from 1966-1975. If yours has no serial number, was made prior to the 1968 Gun Control Act. Regrets, but do not know of a way to get closer to exact date on these shotguns- no records. Great shotguns- have a 12 and a 20.
High Standard manufacturing Corp. made these around 1969 through about 1975or 6
