Winchester Model 12's which they stopped in general production in 1963 are nice pumps. Machined steel receivers. Well made and takedown easily. They point extremely well, least for me. I just walked into a gun store and bought two. One a solid rib 16, well worn and another a like new 12 modified. The 16 cost under $250 and the 12 just at $317. Usually you'll see these in the $500 to $700 range, but I have a secret source. I guess our Model 12's didn't make it across the pond.
Do you see many Parker's over there? How well do they stack up with your fine doubles? Boss? Army and Navy? Have you ever hefted a Lefever? They are about as close to the light, pencil thin English guns. IMHO.

Hi Steve.
No you do not see to many over there but did get one a vhe 12 bore made in
1937 Remington 1/2 size frame made for a Mr Tasey-28inch-full-full.
I do have one English gun a Steven Grant hammer under lever made in 1868
and no i have not hefted a Lefever but i think i would like to.
I did see a mod 12 over here but it was crap
All the best Dave.
