Description:
Winchester Model 12, 28 gauge SKEET pump action shotgun, circa 1955. This is a correct factory Skeet grade 28 gauge with solid rib on the 26” skeet choked barrel.
As you know that there seems to be far more “made up” 28 gauge model 12’s than there are real ones! A buyer must be very careful if they are in fact, looking to purchase a Winchester correct 28 gauge. Look at my photos and in particular look at the picture of the rear of the action (stock removed) where the “28” is stamped. That is the single most defining mark of authenticity. That 28 stamp is nearly impossible to fake and since it is hidden by the stock it is often not checked out.
Then there is the shell guide/stop stamped 28. That part is sometimes welded-up and ground back to size then restamped or left as 16 or 20. See the photo of the part from this gun..correct. 28-gauge barrels are sometimes sleeved onto a 16 or 20 gauge block.
This gun is 100% legitimate in every regard. All wood and metal surfaces are just as they were when the was made in 1957 and still retain 97% of their original finish. There are a few, expected, handling marks.
This is one of the best around and it is a very premium example of a true Model 12 28 gauge SKEET gun.
