Exceptional Factory Engraved Gold Inlaid Winchester Model 12 Pigeon Grade Skeet Slide Action Shotgun with Factory Letter and Original Box

Manufactured in 1964. The factory letter confirms the "Pigeon Skeet" grade, barrel, 1C engraving pattern with gold inlaid dogs, recoil pad, and that it was shipped to Abercrombie & Fitch. Red bead front and steel bead mid sights on the three pin duckbill rib with 2 3/4 inch chamber, standard barrel markings, Winchester "WP" proofs on top of the barrel and receiver at the breech, and "WS-1" marked choke. Matching serial numbers on the receiver and barrel collar. The receiver is engraved in the factory 12-1C pattern with fine scroll surrounding gold inlaid hunting dogs on the sides. The magazine tube is engraved with a pigeon. The bolt and lifter are brilliantly factory jewelled. Fancy diamond pattern checkered extension forearm and pistol grip buttstock with a leather faced solid rubber recoil pad. The stock measurements are: 1 5/8 inch drop at comb; 2 1/4 inch drop at heel; 14 1/4 inch length of pull. With original box "PIGEON" and "SPECIAL" ink stamps on the end label.

ConditionNear new in box. 99% plus original blue/gold inlaid finish remains with some light handling marks, sharp engraving, some light dings on the wood, and sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent. Box is very fine with some corner and edge wear and light storage marks.
