Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Model 12 is a pump-action 12-gauge shotgun that is iconic in that it has the classic features that make a pump gun so appealing. It may not be the first, but it certainly trained generations how to shoot airborne game among many other things. Most people can relate to seeing their parents grandparents shooting a model 12 as they were growing up. The Model 12 was also used by the U.S. military, with roots going back to before World War I.
This Model 12 Skeet WS-1 uses traditional wood furniture with satin finish and checkering that is in excellent condition for its age showing only minor handling marks that we can see. A shallow rib runs the length of the barrel, with a targeting bead on the muzzle end and a silver bead in the middle. The blue barrel is 26 inches long and has a 2 3/4-inch chambered shows very faint blue missing on the end of the barrel. It features a familiar safety at the front of the trigger guard and an action release just behind it.
Time hasn’t passed in vain with this old shotgun and it still has much to offer anyone with a taste for classic American firearms. The feel of the over half a century-old craftsmanship definitely has its allure, and slamming the action shut on a live shell speaks volumes to the old refrain, “They don’t build them like they used to.” This Winchester Model 12 Skeet WS-1 made in 1950 is outstanding condition overall and would make any Winchester collector an excellent collector piece or would be perfectly useful for the right kind of shooter.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
