Default 16 ga Win 21 Trap-Skeet?

What would be a ballpark price for a refinished Win 21 marked Trap-Skeet 16 gauge WS-1 WS-2? Don't know who refinished it.

These that I have looked at that have sold on various auctions bring $4500-6000.

How long are the barrels? 28" are pricier than 26".

26",I'll double check they do look longer. Four digit serial number . Don't have picture of the barrels yet, saying 2 9/16 chamber.

The edge on the top of the receiver makes me suspect that it hasn't been refinished. Have to see more to tell. The floorplate, if perfect blue finish, would indicate a refinish. Nice looking gun, most likely 26".

I've not seen these guns (sub gauge) in the 5-6K range even well worn and tired
I recently acquired a 20 gauge Trap Skeet in beautifully admirable original condition (90%) and willingly gave 10K.
Winchester just didn't make that many.



Here's a 16 gauge Tournament skeet, again in beautiful admirable original condition.
Private party first vetted me and then agreed to take 8K.



These are scarce and beautiful guns, hell on a Skeet field and perfect upland Quail getters.

Looking at the degradation in the blue I would venture a guess that the metal finishes on your gun are original.
The wood should show equi imperfections to prove its' originality. Negative on the 2 9/16 chambers. 2 3/4 or 3" only.
How about more pictures please. Floor plate please and clear pictures of each side of the butt stock.
Have you got Cody info on this gun? I'd be interested to see if it began its' existance with a checkered butt.

A member of another close friends' "Geezer Squad" showed up for SC this AM with a M21 identical to Eddie's gun. They are simply sublime; so sleek, well balanced and fast handling! Smoked a fine imported cigar just afterwards just thinking about it.

Default 16 Deluxe straight grip 2 barrel set

I agree with Kevin. This 16 weighs 6lbs. 11oz. and is an excellent late season rooster gun. This gun is balanced, light, and will shoot heavy loads for late season wild roosters. I also prefer the splinter fore end.

While I wouldn't say rare, splinter forends are somewhat scarce on 21's.
Nice stick of wood too!
