Serial Number: 712716
The Winchester Model 12 has been a famed gun for upland game and clay target games, having won many National Championships on the trap and skeet fields. Known throughout the world as the very finest pump action shotgun ever made, these guns were hand fitted and machined to perfection. From the skeet and trap fields to the upland bird cover, even in the 3 major wars, the Model 12 has been a favorite of American gunners for over 100 years. The Model 12 we are showing here, sn712716 built in 1935, is an incredible find, as the barrel, receiver, and trigger guard are in 99% factory original condition and the wood retains 98% factory finish with a few field marks in the finish only. THIS MODEL 12 IS UNTOUCHED AND FACTORY ORIGINAL IN EVERY WAY, RIGHT DOWN TO THE BUTT PLATE. This is near impossible to find in a pre-WWII Standard Grade Model 12. The 28” twenty gauge solid rib barrel has a mirror shiny bore with a factory full choke and 2 ¾” chamber. Model 12’s in this condition is a true treasure and a grand investment gun to own. It has been shot and carried afield, so you can have some fun and go out and shoot some game or clays, and the gun will still hold its value. You can look long and hard and you will not find a nicer example at anywhere near this price. The value is in the details, and look closely at the photos and you will see a gun that is much cleaner than anything else I can find for sale. It is the kind of premium gun that avid Winchester Model 12 lovers are happy to step up and pay for, so don’t hesitate or she will be gone, and it will be years before you see one this nice with the 28” solid rib barrel. Thanks for looking!
