I thought at first it was an upgrade as we all know there are a ton of them out there.
What I noticed from the pictures was the Winchester name coming through the leather covered pad. I thought if it was upgraded no way would they have used a Winchester pad to cover with leather.
I called and they didn’t know much about it except that the owner lived in the neighborhood and told them his father worked for Winchester as a salesman and this was his gun.
I struck a great deal as they had no interest in it.
You can’t imagine how happy I was when I opened the box!
It is one of my favorite Model 12’s, and I think if you only want one example, this is it.

I think so now and now I have to ask him.
