The Winchester Model 42 is a highly regarded pump-action shotgun introduced in 1933 as a scaled-down version of the famed Model 12, specifically engineered for the .410 bore. Designed to offer the same smooth action and solid steel construction as its larger counterpart, the Model 42 quickly gained a reputation for exceptional handling, balance, and reliability.

From a historical and collector perspective, the Model 42 stands out as one of the finest .410 shotguns ever produced. Manufactured in relatively limited numbers and offered in a wide range of grades and configurations, it has become increasingly desirable over time. Collectors value original examples for their craftsmanship, smooth operation, and variety of factory options, while shooters continue to appreciate its shootability despite its age. Today, the Winchester Model 42 is widely considered a benchmark in small-bore shotgun design and a classic example of American firearms excellence.
