Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Winchester Model 1912 (also commonly known as the Model 12 or M12) is an internal-hammer pump-action shotgun with an external tube magazine. Popularly named the Perfect Repeater at its introduction, it largely set the standard for pump-action shotguns over its 51-year high-rate production life. From August 1912 until it was first discontinued by Winchester in May 1964, nearly two million Model 12 shotguns were produced in various grades and barrel lengths. Initially chambered for 20 gauge only, the 12 and 16 gauge versions followed in 1913 (first listed in the 1914 catalogs), and the 28 gauge version was introduced in 1934. A .410 bore version was never produced; instead, a scaled-down derivative known as the Model 42—based directly on Model 12 drawings—was created specifically for the .410 cartridge. The U.S. armed forces used various versions of the Model 12 in World War I, World War II, Korea, and during the early part of the Vietnam War until the existing inventory was exhausted following the end of production in 1964. Notably, a Featherweight version of the Model 12 was produced for just one year, from 1958 to 1959, with approximately 52,230 units manufactured.
