Description:
General Specs: Winchester, Year 1957, 20 Gauge, 7lbs, Chokes F/F, LOP 14", DAH 2 3/4", DAC 1 5/8"
Serial Number: 30959
Most double gun enthusiasts are well aware of the reputation earned by the Winchester Model 21; a gun of far superior strength and mechanical genius that was under the micro-management of John Olin himself. With only 32,000 produced (compared to 250,000 Parkers!), any high condition Model 21 is a valuable, investment quality firearm sure to appreciate as you enjoy its use. From 1930 to 1980 they only made about 2900 20-gauge guns in all grades, most of them Standard Grades or Skeet Grades. ONLY 123 MAGNUM 20GA. GUNS WERE EVER MADE, MAKING THIS A RARE AND DESIRABLE GUN. They only made the Magnum 20ga. from 1953 to 1959, a total of 6 years. This Model 21, sn30959 made in 1957, is quite a find in that it has not been altered from the specifications in the factory letter that accompanies the gun. Shipped with 30" barrels choked F/F, with mirror bores, tight ribs, and factory 3" chambers, highly figured pistol grip stock ending at the factory buttplate, this is a very awesome looking Model 21 Magnum! The Cody Firearms Museum information sheet shows clearly that this Model 21 shipped as a “symbol G2123B” which is the factory designation for the 20ga. Magnum Grade gun. The Cody info sheet also clearly states that the gun was returned in 1980 for a complete rebuild and restoration to factory new specifications and the gun remains in FACTORY NEW CONDITION TODAY. Like I said…this is an amazing find in the world of Model 21 guns. The barrels are tight on breech face and hinge pin with the lever right of center. What a great gun for the prairies when the pheasant and sharptails are flushing at the edge of range. How about ducks with a 20 gauge? Turkeys at 50 yards? What other vintage double can you shoot true magnum loads without fear of damaging the gun??? Scour the internet and you will not find another Model 21 Magnum 20 gauge for sale at this time, let alone one that is documented to be renewed by the Winchester factory in 1980! Don't miss this opportunity to own a M21 3" Magnum with factory documentation. What a great and useful investment vessel that will bring pride of ownership and great usefulness in the field. Thanks for looking, and don’t let this one get away!
