Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Noble manufacturing was a small gun maker based in Haydenville, Massachusetts (about 2 hrs drive west of Boston). They produced what could be called "utility grade" firearms. Noble produced .22 rifles and shotguns, perhaps they are most known for their pump .22 rifle (model 33 and derivatives). They also produced some pump shotguns and brand labeled some side by side Spanish made shotguns.
The story begins with the man who founded the company: Graham Noble Davidson. Davidson was born in 1893. At some point (perhaps before war broke out) Graham began building equipment for raising chickens. He incorporated his company as Noble Manufacturing on August 20th, 1943.
Noble was Davidson's middle name, but it could be that Noble was also his mother's maiden name. After his son, Robert Graham Davidson returned from his Army Service in 1947 he joined his father in the business and eventually became President of the company. Like many companies the folks at Noble saw an opportunity following the War. Making sporting arms for the returning GIs was a big business. So sometime between 1946 and 1953 Noble began manufacturing firearms. They focused mostly on pump shotguns and pump .22 rifles, although they did offer a couple of single shot bolt action models, a lever action and a semi-auto, all in .22 rimfire.
During the Korean War they were awarded a contract to produce parts for Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR).
By the late '60's things were not going well for Noble. They filed for bankruptcy protection in 1969 and closed their doors for good in 1973. Smith & Wesson in Springfield (about 25 miles to the SE) heard about Noble's predicament and made inquiries into purchasing the rights and tooling for the model 66 shotgun. The deal also included a position for Robert Davidson, who worked at Smith & Wesson for a while in their Long Gun department. Smith & Wesson with the help of Robert Davidson began marketing the Noble 66 as the S&W model 916.
