Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Few firearms have the simplicity of a single-barrel shotgun. At one time it was hard to find a country home or rural farmstead that didn’t have one hanging over the mantel or leaning in a corner, ready to put food on the table or keep varmints at bay. They were made by manufacturers such as Iver Johnson, Harrington & Richardson and Hopkins & Allen and marketed under various store brands with impressive names like “Mohawk” and “Nitro Hunter.”
In an effort to capture the low-cost shotgun market, Winchester started manufacturing utilitarian shotguns following World War I. The first was the break-open Model 20 in .410 bore. That was followed by two single-shot, bolt-action shotguns—the Model 36 “Garden Gun,” chambered for a 9 mm rimfire shot cartridge, and the .410 Model 41. These shotguns were short-lived, with production of each ending after about a decade, with only about 20,000 of each model made.
In 1936, Winchester introduced its Model 37, a single-barrel, break-open shotgun with an exposed hammer spur (or “semi-hammerless” as Winchester called it) and an automatic ejector. The Great Depression was on, and people were looking for value. The 37 was “a super-strong, safe, dependable, hard-shooting, single-shot gun at an exceptionally low price,” a Winchester ad claimed. At $8.98, the Model 37 retailed for about a fifth the cost of Winchester’s pump-action Model 12 shotgun, a price that put it in line with similar products offered by its competitors. More than 1,015,000 Model 37s were manufactured before production ended in 1963. It was replaced in 1964 by the Model 370, which was manufactured in Canada (Ontario) from 1964 - 1972. The Model 37A replaced the Model 370 and was also manufactured in Canada from 1973 - 1980 only. The Winchester 37A was available with various barrel lengths and gauges to suit every person's needs.
This Winchester 37A is chambered in 12 Gauge and features a 30" single shot barrel with a full choke, a classic blue finish, scroll engraved receiver, checkered hardwood buttstock and forearm completes the overall look and feel of this classic single shot shotgun!
