I've been a long-time lurker here, but I decided I needed to join-up so that I could share this one with you...I'm sure there'll be a couple of folks here that will appreciate this Winchester as much as I do!

very nice indeed.Almost as nice as the Ladies/Junior Trap that I had in my hands this weekend complete with the layered Jostam pad.Same fella had serial # 52 in a 16 of course putting to bed the notion that they were'nt made in 1912 along with about 30 others all in 16 with various features.He also has nickel steel and proof steel stocks for around 100-125
Uncut and no cracks.What a display |

So, are planning on buying this fine gun?
Or are you posting in hopes of luring some more bidders? |

This one went through a little while ago. It's not a pristine skeet, but I liked the engraving, and there was plenty of interest in this gun..

Good one! Looks like he said "Oh S*#&" instead of "cheese." |

No, Dave, I'm not trying to draw out any more bids..it looks to me like the shotgun is doing just fine by itself in that regard. By the name of the forum, and what I've read here, I figured some of the members might have missed it and would like to see it since it was a 16.
I had my Model 12 Skeet 16 40 years ago..most likely won't do another. |

Welcome aboard!
Nice gun. I kinda of have an itch for a M12 16ga, but not one that nice. I figured out how to do double triggers, so maybe I could figure out how to use a pump. Or not. |
