1952-53 Winchester model 12 Deluxe Skeet 28 gauge Original Factory Finish Solid Rib
Description:
WINCHESTER MODEL 12 DELUXE SKEET – 28 GAUGE – SOLID RIB BARREL – FACTORY ORIGINAL – HIGH COLLECTOR GRADE – CIRCA 1952–1953
Price: $12,500.00
Offered by Peterson Collective is an exceptional Winchester Model 12 Deluxe Skeet in 28 gauge, representing one of the most desirable configurations of Winchester’s iconic pump-action shotgun. Manufactured circa 1952–1953, this example originates from the refined post-war production era, a period widely regarded for its consistent quality and attention to detail in Winchester’s sporting arms.
This particular specimen is chambered in 28 gauge with a 2 7/8" chamber and is fitted with a 26-inch solid rib barrel configured with a skeet choke, delivering a balanced combination of quick handling and uniform pattern performance ideally suited for clay target disciplines and upland applications. The shotgun presents with a total weight of approximately 7.26 pounds, offering a stable yet responsive feel in hand.
Serial number 1351777, corresponds to the early 1950s production range, aligning with the stated manufacture period. The firearm retains its original factory finish, exhibiting a high collector-grade presentation with strong wood-to-metal fit, clean metal surfaces, and well-preserved factory characteristics throughout. The stock and forend display attractive figure consistent with Deluxe-grade Winchester offerings, and the overall condition reflects careful preservation rather than restoration or refinish.
Dimensionally, the shotgun is configured with a 14-inch length of pull, 1 3/8 inches of drop at comb, and 2 1/2 inches of drop at heel, presenting classic skeet geometry that contributes to a natural and repeatable mount. The Model 12 platform itself is renowned for its robust internal machining and exceptionally smooth pump action, qualities that have cemented its reputation as one of the finest slide-action shotguns ever produced.
This example stands out as a high-grade collector piece due to its original finish, desirable 28 gauge chambering, solid rib barrel configuration, and overall condition. Winchester Model 12 Deluxe Skeet variants in this level of preservation are increasingly scarce, particularly in smaller gauge offerings, making this an excellent opportunity for both the discerning collector and the enthusiast seeking a premium example of American sporting heritage.
