This used Winchester Model 12 Pigeon Grade 12 Gauge pump shotgun (dated 1955) features a desirable 30" Winchester Proof Steel barrel fitted with a factory ventilated rib and fixed Full choke. Chambered for 3" Super-Speed and Super-X loads, this classic Model 12 represents one of Winchester's most sought-after sporting configurations.
Overall condition is approximately 90%, with the shotgun retaining strong original blue finish throughout. The barrel markings remain sharp and legible, while the stock exhibits only light handling wear consistent with careful use. The walnut stock and forearm display attractive grain and maintain excellent appearance, complementing the shotgun's outstanding overall presentation.
The ventilated rib is properly supported by the factory donut posts underneath the rib, providing the classic sighting plane that made these guns favorites among trap shooters and live bird competitors. The smooth-cycling Model 12 action continues to demonstrate the quality and reliability that earned the model its legendary reputation.
