Selling an old Winchester 1897 with what appears to be non standard wood furniture. The receiver and barrel assembly are different serial numbers with the receiver being built in 1900 and the barrel from 1902. I can attest that the shotgun is fully functional but obviously a bit beat up after more than 100 years of life. Including 3 full boxes of trap loads that are safe to use in it.

That's a surprising amount of blueing left on the receiver. Very nice.

Given the non-standard wood I wouldn't be surprised if it was reblued at some point. It is quite old after all.

For anyone in the pdx area, I get up there once a month so I can meet at FFL near Portland not just Corvallis.
