Winchester Model 12 1948 12-ga 30” Good Cond.
Description: The Model 12 is one of the all-time classic shotguns, along with the Winchester Model 1897, Remington Models 31 and 870, and the Ithaca Model 37. Designed by John M. Browning, it used, for the time, a rather unique take down system wherein both the barrel and the magazine tube were attached to the same forward assembly and attached to the receiver by a rotating thread system. In order to remove the barrel, a pin at the end of the magazine tube was pushed to one side, and then the tube was rotated until the its threads no longer interlocked with the receiver threads, at which point, the magazine tube was pulled forward. With the forearm pulled all the way to the forward position, the entire assembly was rotated until the barrel threads no longer interlocked with a second set of receiver threads. The entire assembly could then be removed. This made it possible for a hunter or other sport shooter to switch the Model 12 to another barrel in a relatively short period of time (less than a minute). There are a few signs of wear in different locations as can be seen in the photos above. This is not surprising when one considers the 12’s age. With a serial number of “1,121441”, this gun was manufactured in 1948 and is 71 years old! Still, the year in which it was manufactured means it is a relatively late example of one of the finest shotguns ever produced. Winchester ceased production of the original Model 12 in 1963, the year Winchester’s management chose to make significant changes to their firearms in order to reduce costs. This began the pre-64 vs. post-64 collector’s market. The “new” version of the Model 12 was produced until 1976. The Model 12 here has a barrel that is thirty inches long and has a full choke. It is made from Winchester proof steel as marked on the barrel. It is chambered for 2 ¾ inch shells. Unfortunately, the barrel ended up with a ding in the crown of the barrel. Judging by the feel of the bore at the muzzle, care was taken to make sure no metal from the ding was left protruding inside the bore, which could have affected the shot pattern. Spare barrels can still be found for those who want a barrel in a different choke. Some may be fitted with a Cutts Compensator which is an early version of adjustable choke. The Model 12 would be suitable to many uses including bird hunting and long-range clay shooting. Don’t miss a chance to own one of history’s finest shotguns.
