Interesting Model 1897 Winchester pump action 12 gauge shotgun, showing possible prototype or experimental features. The gun shows a nicely made aluminum forend grip and the serial number is marked WRACO. The condition is fair showing a gray patina, some scattered rust and erosion; the stocks show some dings, mars and scratches from use. There has been a screw replaced on the right side of the forend at a later date. The last patent date on barrel address is December 6, 1892 and the actuating arm between the pump grip and bolt shows Model 1897 Winchester marking. An anomaly that would be interesting to research further, and may have come out of one of the big sales of the factory collection. Est.: $600-$1,200
