Description:
General Specs: Winchester, Year 1985+-, 12 Gauge, 7lbs 6oz, Chokes screw-in, LOP 14 1/4", DAH 2 3/8", DAC 1 1/2"
Serial Number: PK536389E-198X
The Winchester Model 101 was introduced in 1963 and the original design ended production in 1989. There is another more modern Model 101 that is a different action and design that is made in Belgium and Portugal, not to be confused with this vintage, original model made in the Kodensha firearms facility in Japan, known for producing extremely well made firearms. The original Model 101 is a fairly obvious copy of the famous Browning Superposed built in Belgium at the FN plant from the 1930’s into the 1980’s. Just look at the lock up of the broad horizontal locking bolt that intercepts the barrel lug at the bottom of the action…Superposed. Look at the safety system…Superposed. The Model 101 was, and is, a solid, attractive over/under with a hand-engraved receiver and fine French walnut stocks, nicely checkered and with American stock dimensions. This gun, built around 1985, is in AS NEW, FACTORY ORIGINAL CONDITION WITH NO HANDLING MARKS OR WEAR SHOWING ANYWHERE ON THE GUN…THE VERY BEST AVAILABLE. The gun was shipped with 27 ½” chrome-lined barrels with screw-in Winchokes (SK/SK extended choke tubes provided), nicely figured wood, with comfortable stock dimensions and a factory pad. The mechanics are perfect, with strong well-timed ejectors, crisp triggers, the barrels tight as new on the hinge pin and breech face and the opening lever well right of center. You can find a Model 101 12ga. for less money if you scour the internet, but you won’t find one that is in this kind of condition, WITH A FACTORY WINCHESTER CASE, for this price. If you like top quality and condition, this is your gun. It is a solid 100% example without a mark. The case is excellent as well. Weighing just 7lbs. 6oz. and balanced perfectly 1/8” ahead of the hinge point, the gun is perfect for the field or the clays course, and affordable to own. These guns are going up in value, so buy with the confidence of knowing you are investing, not spending! Thanks for looking.
