What’s Included
- Winchester Model 12 Field Grade 12-gauge pump-action shotgun
The 30-inch Winchester Proof Steel barrel is plain (no rib) and set up with a fixed Full (F) choke for tighter patterns. A single front bead provides a simple, durable sighting setup appropriate for field use.
The action is the classic Model 12 pump with an internal hammer, right-side ejection, and bottom loading into a 5-round tubular magazine. The trigger has no disconnector, which allows slam-fire operation as originally designed.
This shotgun uses Winchester’s takedown system, and the receiver and receiver extension carry matching serial numbers. The barrel is marked with multiple patent dates, and a “W” stamp is present at the rear of the loading port.
Furniture includes a walnut stock with a semi-pistol grip and a grooved walnut slide handle. The factory hard-rubber buttplate is molded with the “Winchester Repeating Arms” logo. Length of pull measures 14.0 inches.
Chambered for 2 3/4 inch shells, this Field Grade example reflects the straightforward field configuration that made the Model 12 a widely used American shotgun.
