Anyone know of a site that can pin point the month and year one of these shotguns were manufactured? I have found a couple of sites that claim the year and they contradicted each other. They were off by 2 years. Would like to find a reliable source if there is one out there, thanks.[/b] |

Thanks for that info skeet! Made me go get my M12 out of the safe and found that it was older than I thought. Made in 1948 and I thought it was a 1958 model. |

If you want to spend some money and find out, contact Ms. Muerrle, a former Winchester Custom shop engraver.

Thanks. Looking for a specific date of manufactured gun.
I'll contact them to see if it is possible to nail down a date. |
