General Specs: Winchester, Year 1930, 20 Gauge, 7lb 7oz, Chokes .004", LOP 13 7/8", DAH 2 1/4", DAC 1 1/2"

The Winchester Model 1912, aka the Model 12 or M12, became a instant hit on its introduction. Based on a John Browning design using a sliding forearm or "pump action" to cycle the mechanism making for rapid operation, earning the gun the epithet of "The Perfect Repeater."

Here we have an example of the famous Model 12 appearing to be a Trap grade gun fitted with a matted rib and in overall excellent condition. Showing honest use and wear, this custom ordered deluxe pump looks the part of a sportsman's gun and includes a removable magazine limiter. This gun was produced with highly figured walnut stocks with selected wood used for the forend. For those that study the early Model 12 guns, look closely at the forearm wood and checkering.  The wood is European walnut checkered with more points in the pattern than the finest offerings displayed in their early catalogues, indicating a special order stock set.  Most all Model 12 had American walnut, but Winchester would provide fine European walnut upon request for an extra charge. This M12 has matching European walnut furniture without the black diamonds, which is correct for a 1930 manufactured gun, and finished with perfectly executed checkering making this Model 12 a particularly special and rare find.
With a barrel showing a mirror finish bore and choked mod, this Winchester weighs 7lb 7oz and has a trigger that does not stack but breaks cleanly at 3 1/2lbs. This shotgun it is ready to shatter clays or take upland game all day long!

This desirable 'repeater' is priced to sell. Get this gun back in the game, make it yours today, enjoy.
