Pre-World War II WINCHESTER M42 SLIDE ACTION .410 g. HAMMERLESS Shotgun C&R
“EVERYBODY’S SWEETHEART” Hunting/Sporting Gun
Here Ancestry Guns presents a C&R Winchester Model 42 Slide Action .410 Shotgun, manufactured in its first year of production in 1933 New Haven, Connecticut with a production run between 1933 and 1963 with total production of about 160,000 guns. Designed by William Roemer and introduced in 1933, the Model 42 Slide Action Shotgun was chambered exclusively for .410 gauge.
Referred to as “Everybody’s Sweetheart”, variations included the Standard Grade, Deluxe Grade, Trap Grade, Skeet Grade and Pigeon Grade. Various chokes, barrel lengths, plain barrels, solid ribs, ventilated ribs, engraving patterns, and checkering patterns were offered. Regretfully, there are no factory records available for this model.
The .410 shotgun, often touted as a “beginner’s gun” because of its attractiveness to young shooters, is usually lightweight with thin patterns and doesn’t deliver a big charge which could potentially scare away a young shooter. The origins of the .410 go back to the end of the nineteenth century, when farmers shot birds and small game to feed their families. There wasn’t any wing shooting involved here, just pop them wherever they were and take ‘em home for mom to cook.
The overall condition is excellent. Original finish is preserved. Robust action and a smooth slide. Mirror bright, smooth bore. Very fine stock containing only light handling wear. Markings are sharp.
