O' relax. Wayne this is a good question as long as the question has to do with classic guns in my book. The price sounds right wayne, if you are looking for a shooter i would reccomend buying the gun. It would make a great field gun, one question Wayne is it a takedown?

It would have to be a takedown as only 12s were made as non takedown (model 25s). Actually, the price is a bit high for a reblued 12. Up here in New York, you can find original, unrefinished 16 gauge guns for $300 to $350. These would be about 80 to 90percent guns.

The reason I asked this question on this forum was because vintage winchesters and ithica pumps often come up on this forum. Sorry' I did not intend to insault some PGCA members.

Wayne I would agree with Bill....if you are close to new York you should try the Syracuse gun show which is this coming weekend.The show is quite large and you would have several model 12's in 16 ga. to choose from.

Bill Z is right. There are plenty of original condition guns out there in much better shape than that one. Don't waste your time or money.

I passed on the gun. The only reason it caught my eyes was because it is a 16 ga. Unfortunatly I live in Alabama. I would be unable to make any east coast gun shows. The shows in this state are pretty small and the dealers think that their junk is gold. I would prefure a double anyway.
