What’s Included
- Winchester Model 140 Ranger 12 Ga semi-automatic shotgun
- 28" vent-rib barrel with installed CYL WinChoke tube
- Factory 2-shell magazine plug (installed)
The 28-inch vent-rib barrel provides a long sighting plane, and the brass front bead offers a clear point of reference. Winchester’s WinChoke system, here fitted with a CYL tube, allows the shooter to swap chokes quickly for changing field or range needs.
Gas operation keeps recoil manageable and cycling smooth. The cross-bolt safety sits conveniently behind the alloy trigger guard for intuitive operation. With a 2 + 1 capacity when plugged, this Model 140 meets many hunting regulations while maintaining the quick follow-up shot advantages of a semi-auto.
Weighing less than comparable steel-receiver guns, the black-anodized alloy receiver helps balance the shotgun for fast shouldering. The hardwood stock and grooved fore-end wear a durable satin-oil finish, and the ventilated recoil pad adds comfort during extended sessions.
A 14.75-inch length of pull fits most adult shooters, while the 2 ¾-inch chamber keeps the platform compatible with widely available field and target loads.
