Thank you Dave for posting that catalog cut. Dave Riffle in his Model 12 book states that the Tournament Grade was also available with 26", 28" and 32" barrels on request and at no additional charge.
Love her early/small Trap style forend and that looooong sighting plane: 32” + almost 4” over the top of the receiver = about 36”. |

Sorry William, I don’t know. The buttstock already on the Winny when I bought her.
Incidentally the stock does have a WRA grip cap although its wrist checkering doesn’t match the later factory A or B patterns shown in Riffle’s book. |

I'd sure like to see you kill true pairs with it. Actually, even a report pair would be a challenge, with a single shot without an ejector.

at a time. Just like Hunting. Harry P.S. I started shooting shotguns at age 6, the same 16ga. Riverside. My Dad only believed in single shot guns. All others were ''Evil''. I learned wing shooting on our Pigeon flocks. By 10 years old I was quite deadly on them. One shot, one dead pigeon. At 14 I bought a 12ga. Win. double. That first season I shot 23 Roosters straight with the right barrel, before I needed the left barrel one time. At 15 I bought my first Win. M-12 (new) and still have it. I used it all most like a single, one shot fired, one dead bird. I had to hide that gun for about 6 months, so my Dad wouldn't be to mad when He saw it. .
