Manufactured in 1971 by the craftsman of the Winchester Custom Shop, this is an attractive Winchester Model 21 in scarce three gauge configuration.

Double steel beads and 3 inch chambers on the 410 set, ivory and steel beads with 3 inch chambers for the 20 gauge set, and double steel with 2 7/8 inch chambers on the 28 gauge barrels. Additionally, the 20 gauge barrels are marked "CUSTOM BUILT BY WINCHESTER" on the rib and "MODEL 21 WINCHESTER 20 GAUGE 3IN. CHAM. / MADE IN NEW HAVEN CONN U.S.A." on the left barrel, with a scallop and dot engraved border at the breech. A pair of high gloss, finely checkered forearms with ebony tip inserts and engraved hardware are included. Nick Kusmit Master engraved flat sided milled frame, in the #2 style, with "MADE IN U.S.A. MODEL 21/WINCHESTER REPEATING ARMS CO/NEW HAVEN, CONN" on the jeweled water table, "SAFE" in gold on the tang, and a selective gold trigger. Checkered extra fancy high gloss walnut stock with gold initial oval and checkered naked butt, 14 inch pull, 1 3/8 inch drop at comb, 2 1/8 inch drop at heel and 3/8 inch cast on. The set is complete in a hard leather case with leather corner protectors, straps and handle, wine colored lining, and a canvas outer cover, along with a copy of Ned Schwing's book "Winchester's Finest: The Model 21".

Rating Definition:

Excellent plus, showing 99% of the original Custom Shop blue finish, with only the lightest handling and storage marks. A few tiny chips and dings are visible on the wood, which is otherwise excellent. Mechanically excellent.
