WTB Winchester 1887


Recommended Posts

Posted

Looking for an original Winchester 1887 12 gauge in good, or better, condition.  I would prefer one that has been modified to drop 2 by Fireball but that's not a critical requirement.  Please PM me if you have one available.

I've been trying to get my hands on one too. I think they are unicorns and don't exist. That being said, if you find a few let me know.

I have a 12 gauge manufactured in 1897. It has been completely gone through by a gunsmith. The forcing cone has been lengthened for modern shells. Otherwise it is unmodified.

 

Includes butt cover and lever wrap.

 

$1750 plus shipping.

Im assuming you would need to shoot black powder out of it due to the year it was built. Also, Pictures for drooling purposes?

Trainwreck - FYI, I shot with The Cowboys and the Cajon Cowboys for many years so some of the members know me well.

Hey Trainwreck,

 

If you're planning on starting to shoot an '87, you have the right alias.

 

Don't ask me how I know.

He is damn fast with an 87 already.

Cabela's in Owatonna Minnesota has had a 1901 in the gun library for a while now...if anyone is interested in a big boomer...

Loved that store and town!  Worked the Parent company of Modern Metals Manufacturing and spent a week there working and then saw their local high school football game, Renaissance festival and Cabelas!  Great time!
