USA./ PAT.NOV.25.90.DEC.6.92.JULY.21.96.FEB.22.98.JUNE. 14.98.OCT.13.1900.DEC.25.06.JULY.5.10.”, 12GA – FULL”. The right side of the barrel is stamped “MADE IN U.S.A. WINCHESTER REPEATING ARMS CO., NEW HAVEN, CONN— With patent dates on the 2nd line. The bottom of the receiver and extension are marked “706770” with an “E” for the model number.

Features a red bead front sight. The Winchester Model 1897, designed by John Moses Browning and introduced in 1897, stands as one of the most influential pump action shotguns ever produced, bridging the transition from exposed hammer designs of the nineteenth century to the repeating shotguns that defined the twentieth. Widely used for sporting, law enforcement, and military applications, the Model 97 earned a reputation for durability, rapid cycling, and its distinctive slam fire capability. The takedown configuration allowed the shotgun to be separated for transport, a practical feature for traveling sportsmen of the era. This 1922 production example reflects the mature evolution of the design during its peak years of manufacture, chambered for 12 gauge 2 3/4 inch shells, a standard that remains dominant in shotgun use.
