The Winchester Model 1897 was designed by American firearms inventor John Moses Browning. The Model 1897 was an improved version of the model 1893 & was first listed for sale in the November 1897 Winchester catalog as a 12 ga solid frame, furnished with standard 30'' barrels. The 12 ga take-down model was added in Oct 1898, & the 16 ga take-down in Feb 1900. This antique, shorter barrel length & solid frame example is fairly rare & collectible. The original round knob pistol grip wood stock & corncob forearm are excellent, with small handling marks or contusions to the original thinned finish. The metal original finish is worn mostly gun metal gray, with a tin brown patina & remains of original finish in protected areas. Bore is very good. Barrel holds a single front bead. Buttstock carries a Winchester widow's peak plastic buttplate. LOP: 13 3/8''. Comes with a Cody Winchester Factory Records Letter confirming configuration & dates. Antique, No FFL Req. - Value: 500 to 1000
