From the Vault: Winchester Model 12 Shotgun
The Winchester Model 12, produced from 1912 to 1964, was a highly successful pump-action shotgun, with approximately 2 million units made. Initially offered in 20 gauge, it later expanded to 12, 16, and 28 gauges. Its notable take-down feature facilitated transport and cleaning. The Model 12 served extensively in military conflicts and remains a collectible firearm due to its durability and parts availability, though its high manufacturing cost led to its discontinuation in favor of cheaper alternatives like the Remington 870.
