Description:
VERY EARLY 1887 12 GA. LEVER SHOTGUN, 32" BARREL, #15XXX, MADE 1888. This one came out of here in Montana and I'm sure there's lots of history in it! Solid stock and forearm shows normal handling with tight wood to metal fit and checkered steel shotgun butt plate. Gray/brown receiver with sharp Winchester logo on the left side. Barrel and mag tube show very aged and thinning blue mixing heavily gray/brown. Surprisingly fine bore that is maybe a slightly frosty at worst early with no pitting! This is very difficult to find on these early black powder shotguns. Exc. screws and markings on the lower tang. I have one like this I shoot with readily available Mag Tech brass shells and black powder or black powder substitute- loads of fun. Hard to find 137 year old Winchester.
