Vintage Classic Winchester Model 12 Pump Shotgun C. 1953

Offered here for sale and just acquired from a very fine arms collection is a classic vintage 1953 Winchester  Model 12 pump shotgun in fine condition. Serial number 1339847. It has a 30" plain barrel chambered for 2-3/4" shells and it is FULL choked. The shotgun has only seen light use. The stock is solid in fine shape. The ejector housing has some marks oil which we will clean if before shipping. The shotgun retains all of its blued finish and this should be an excellent shotgun for use or as a collectible addition to any Winchester collection.
Based on this serial number 1,339,847, this Winchester Model 12 was manufactured in 1953. Winchester records show that serial numbers at the end of 1952 reached approximately 1,328,002, and the end of 1953 reached approximately 1,399,996, placing this shotgun squarely in 1953 production.
A 30-inch Full Choke Model 12 was a very popular configuration for:
  • Waterfowl hunting
  • Turkey hunting
  • Trap shooting
  • General field use
The specimen retains essentially all original bluing. The stock is solid and in fine condition. The mechanical condition appears sound. The minor oil residue and marks on the ejector housing are cosmetic and easily addressed. At near 95–98% this places the gun well above average condition for a 1953 field-grade Model 12. Completely original with matching numbers and excellent finish, it is desirable both as a shooter and as a collectible representative of Winchester's golden-era production.
