Dang It Dan 13202 Posted July 4, 2025 Posted July 4, 2025 Hello All, I am looking around for a back-up to my main match shotgun which is to say, a Winchester 1897 (no replicas). To be more specific, I would really like one that was built in the '50's with a serial number North of 960,XXXX. However if you have something in primo shape I might be interested no matter the manufacture date. I'll pay according to condition, of course. It would be a plus if it's not been cut down. Thanks, Dang It Dan

By the morning he’ll be invested in a diamond mine and also cinnamon harvesting operation in Southeast Asia.

Sedalia Dave Posted July 5, 2025 Posted July 5, 2025 I have one made in the 50s. Without looking I can’t remember what year. Has the original uncut 28” barrel and a second barrel cut to 20” that is properly fitted to the receiver. Holds and properly cycles 6 rounds of AAs. I used it for WB but now that I can use my 87, it’s just sitting in the safe. I’ll post pictures later tonight. If you’re interested let me know and we’ll discuss pricing via PMs.
