What’s Included
- Winchester Model 1200 Field 20 gauge pump-action shotgun
The Field configuration includes a 28 inch plain barrel with a fixed Modified choke and a 2-3/4 inch chamber. The barrel is marked Winchester Proof Steel and MOD, and the shotgun feeds from an under-barrel tubular magazine with a stated 2+1 capacity. A single front bead provides a straightforward sight picture.
The receiver is an anodized aluminum alloy with a black finish. The action uses a four-lug rotating bolt that locks into a steel barrel extension, a defining mechanical feature of the Model 1200. The takedown system uses a barrel ring over the magazine tube secured by a threaded magazine cap for easy disassembly.
The wood stock and forend feature checkering for secure purchase. The stock has a pistol grip with an oval grip cap inlay and is finished with a factory ventilated red Winchester recoil pad, complemented by white-line and black-line spacers. Length of pull measures 14.0 inches.
Production aligns with the 1968–1971 era, with the L serial prefix indicating post-1968 manufacture. This U.S.-made shotgun retains a black-finished receiver and steel barrel, configured for 2-3/4 inch shells and a Modified choke as marked.
Key functional details include the 2-3/4 inch chamber and the Modified choke, providing a classic field setup maintained by Winchester’s Proof Steel barrel construction and the Model 1200’s rotating-bolt action design.
