Manufactured in 1956. Standard Winchester markings including the factory proofs on top of the barrel and receiver at the breech. Single bead front sight, choke marked "MOD", 2 3/4 inch chamber and a length of pull of 14 inches. The shotgun has the hanging tag, 10 commandments of safety pamphlet and instructions pamphlet. Smooth pistol grip stock and 14 groove forearm with the buttstock fitted with a checkered plastic buttplate. The factory box is numbered to the gun and has the correct yellow end label, protective paper, and cardboard partitions

Excellent plus in original box. The shotgun retains 99% plus original blue finish showing only light slide wear. The wood is also excellent with only a couple minor pressure dents on the buttstock. The box is very fine. A fantastic example of a pre-64 Winchester Model 12 shotgun with the original factory box.
