Wade Butcher Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 In typical newbie fashion, I recently purchased a few different style shotguns from fellow SASS members with the idea that I'd play with them all and decide which style I liked best. Well, after trying the 1887 lever action style (first), I had so much fun that I decided that I don't need this pump style '97 Winchester (still untried). It's an original Winchester made in 1912. You can see and read more about it in the original thread HERE. It's well worn on the outside, and it looks every bit of its 1912 vintage. However, from talking with few local SASS members, it seems that these pump shotguns were heavily used by law enforcement — tossed around a lot, but not fired very often. That's probably why the original seller said the internals are, "tight with very little wear" and its previous gunsmith said, "Seriously, this is a good gun - no slop at all. I cut it down & smoothed it a bit. Showed very little wear internally and will last a long, long time in our game." As I said, I've never fired it. I fell in love with my lever action '87, so this pump shotgun will probably just sit around in my closet if I don't offer it for sale now. Price is $700 shipped to your favorite FFL. SOLD Trades welcome. I'm currently looking for a tuned Cimarron Thunderball (357/38), Cimarron 1875 Outlaw (357/38), Cimarron "Wyatt Earp" Buntline (357/38), or Cimarron Bisley (357/38). W.B.
