About Montgomery Ward / Mossberg

Montgomery Ward (Wards) commissioned O.F. Mossberg & Sons to manufacture various firearms, which were then sold under Montgomery Ward's in-house Western Field brand. These firearms, often sold through the Montgomery Ward catalog, represent a collaboration where Mossberg produced the guns for the department store to brand and sell, resulting in a variety of Mossberg-made, Ward-branded firearms. Western Field was Montgomery Ward's private-label brand for firearms.
