Hi Pards,

I looking to trade a Winchester 12ga 1897 E series take-down 28" Bbl for a new or used Norinco/IAC trenchgun for Wild Bunch matches.

Thanks, JB

Isn't the "trenchgun," as opposed to the vanilla '97, illegal for WB?

The trench gun is OK for wild bunch, not for CAS.

what year is the 97? Does it work good and how much do you want for it?

Had my local gunsmith modify my dad's old 1897 Winney that was manufactured in 1911. Cut the barrel to 18 inches. Installed fiber optic front sight. Chopped stock 2 inches and added KickEze buttpad. Repaired and refinished stock & foregrip to their original beauty. Applied non-glare ceramic coat finish on all the metal. She is an absolute beauty, and for me, far more useful than in her original configuration. My Pop would be proud of her.

 

So thankful that I did not sell or trade her.
