I would not be afraid to shoot buckshot in my 1901 Winchester. What brand and load of ammunition are you using in yours?

1901 v 1887 |

1901 v 1887
This is kind of off topic but were there substantial changes between the two models from black powder era to smokeless time?

From everything I've read about the two models as well as I can remember the 1901 was claimed to be stronger . Now the reason for which this claim was made I honestly do not remember .

Other than a trigger block, for safety reasons, added to the 1901, there were no mechanical differences, and the serial numbers of the 1901 was just a continuation of the 1889. The only other differences were mostly choke and gauge marking.

You could get the 1887 with damascus barrels. I am not sure if the 1901 had that ophtion. The 1887 could be had with 3 grades of damascus--good, fine, and finest. I once owned serial 13, 1887 with fine damascus barrels in 12 gauge. Did a writeup for the WACA magazine about 20 years ago on the gun. Neat guns. Just for the hell of it, about 5 years ago, I purchased a Chinese replica of the 1887. Made for cowboy action shooting. Extremely well made gun, produced on cnc machining. I do not think they are made any more.
