What’s Included
- Sears Roebuck & Co Ted Williams Model 200 12 gauge pump-action shotgun
Winchester manufactured this Model 200 as a private-label version of the Model 1200, retaining the robust four-lug rotating bolt while giving it reversed locking lugs that keep barrels model-specific. The result is a smooth, tight lock-up in a lighter package thanks to the aluminum alloy receiver.
The 28-inch blued steel barrel wears a vent rib and brass bead for quick sight alignment, and its fixed modified choke offers a versatile pattern for upland game or informal clays. A 2 ¾-inch chamber suits standard 12 gauge loads, and the magazine holds two shells plus one in the chamber.
Walnut furniture with pressed checkering provides a secure grip, while the beavertail fore-end keeps hands clear of the barrel under rapid cycling. A ventilated recoil pad and 14-inch length of pull lend comfortable shoulder fit.
Controls are familiar and straightforward: a cross-bolt safety at the trigger guard, slide-release button ahead of the trigger, and simple takedown for cleaning. Inspector code “ET” on the barrel confirms factory inspection standards of the era.
