There should be much more to the marking than that. That is only part of a patent date. Leads me to believe the gun is in pretty sad condition if that is all that is legible. Anyway, Stevens Favorite rifles were produced in several different models with slightly different features. Sometimes just the sights make the difference. Would need a LOT more detailed information and pictures if possible. sales@countrygunsmith.net

That would be "1915," not "915." It replaced the 1894 Favorite. The Favorites are popular. In well-used condition they bring $100; in great condition they can get into the $300 range. Just about any gun guide (Flayderman, Blue Book, etc.) gives lots of info about these popular Stevens rifles.
