The Riverside trade name was used by the Stevens division of Savage Arms from about 1920 to the late 1940's. It will be a well-made but unexciting firearm, and if it has been cared for will still throw a load of birdshot at a dove or pheasant as long as you stick with standard field loads. If it is still in factory-new condition, you may find an interested collector who will pay over $100 if it is a single shot or $300 for a double barrel, but more likely it would run about 1/2 to 3/4 of the price of similar new guns, which are priced at $90 (single) and $300 (double). Riverside Arms Company: Trade name used by the J. Stevens Arms and Tool Company on various types of firearms. I know of three side-by-side shotguns made by Stevens under the Riverside label: the 215, the 315 (early) and the 315 (late). The 215 had external hammers, while the 315s were hammerless boxlock guns. Values can range up to $1000 for new in box specimens.
The Riverside model number will be identical to the Stevens number.

Try your local gunsmith. The Riverside is a Stevens shotgun. If you can find out which model it is, you can probably find the wood at Numrich Gunparts

Stevens/Savage used the Riverside name from about 1920 to 1945.
Can't give you an exact date, but Stevens used the Riverside name from about 1920-1945 according to my notes.
This shotgun is in the neighborhood of 100 years old. There is fairly extensive information online available on this shotgun.
