Description:
The Winchester Model 42 shotguns produced in the 1990s are Japanese-made reissues manufactured by Miroku for Fabrique Nationale (FN/Browning) between 1991 and 1993. These high-quality reproductions are highly regarded, often featuring high-grade wood and engraving, making them valuable collector and shooter items. 
  • Manufacturer: Miroku (Japan).
  • Production Era: Approx. 1991–1993.
  • Markings: These were marketed under Browning/Winchester, with only about 850–900 units officially stamped as "Winchester".
  • Caliber: .410 Bore (3" shells).
  • Action: Pump-action (scaled-down Model 12 design).
  • Barrel Length: Typically 26 inches.
  • Choke: Factory Full choke
  • Features: High-grade walnut wood, ventilated ribs, jeweled bolts/lifters, and scroll engraving with gold borders are high grade.
  • Weight: Lightweight (approx. 5 lbs 12 oz - 6 lbs). 
  • Rarity (1990s Specific): Because only ~850–900 were stamped Winchester, this specific 90s variation is sought after by collectors who want a new-generation model with the original brand name.
  • Quality: These are known to be "as the best of the originals" in terms of fit and finish, better than standard 1950s production.
  • Condition: 1990s guns are more likely to be found in excellent or "New In Box" (NIB) condition compared to 1950s guns, which often have heavy wear.
  • High Grade Features: Most were "High Grade Limited Edition" (Grade V-VI wood, engraving) rather than standard field guns. 
  • Value: Because they are collectors' items, prices for these 90s Miroku-made Winchesters run high, often nearing original pre-war gun prices due to their high-grade features and limited production.
  • Comparables: Look at sites like or GunsInternational for "Miroku Winchester 42" to find accurate pricing.
  • Original Box: Having the original Winchester red, white, and blue box adds significant value.
