Default WTS: Three 12 gauge shotguns

1: For sale is a Browning Auto 5 made in 1959 in Belgium. It has a 30 inch barrel with ventilated rib, 3 inch chamber and full choke. It is in very good condition and retains its original finishes.

This shotgun is such that you could add it to your collection or you could use it without fear of devaluing it. No major blemishes or issues that I can see, though the right side of the action has a bit of "staining" which may be from old gun oil. This is hardly noticeable in person or in the photos. I have not attempted to remove it as I do not want to harm the finish. I originally obtained it from an estate so do not know prior history.

Price is $600.

See photos below.









2: For sale is a Winchester Model 12 Featherweight. This is a 12 gauge made for a limited time (1953 to 1954 approximately) by Winchester and retains its original finishes. This shotgun has been inspected by a noted shotgun gunsmith who stated that it functions very well and is one of the best that he has seen.

Choke is modified, barrel (as I measure it) is about 27 inches, chamber is 2 3/4 inches. The barrel has not been cut or modified in any way. It is a nice original piece looking for a new home. It was purchased from an estate and it is one of a few pieces I am selling.

The only negative, which I am mentioning so that there are no surprises, is that at one time someone must have used a "slip on" buttpad on this shotgun. As a result there is a bit of wear in the wood finish, and it is shown in the photos below.

Price is $550.








3: For sale is a Laurona-Eibar over/under 12 gauge made in Spain. It has 28 inch barrels and appears to be choked in modified and full (17.4/18.6 and 17.8/18.6). I cannot find much information on this shotgun but it seems similar to a Browning Citori with a bit of extra weight.

This shotgun opens and closes well and seems very tight. The mechanicals are in excellent condition as is the bluing other than a bit of wear at the safety and latch (that is not rust in the picture). The only problem with this shotgun is that someone wiped down the stock with something that dulled the finish in spots. This is difficult to photograph but can be seen in person. It does not affect the function at all, and I suppose you could refinish it but if it is to be used as a field gun there probably is not much point in that.

Price is $450.







Only trade I might be interested in is a single stack .45 or a Weatherby. Shipping is not included, but offers entertained. I reside in Michigan. Please send me a PM with any offers or questions.

TTT.

Send me an offer if you're interested. The worst I can do is say no.
Might consider the right 38, 357 or 44 in trade, or a 69XX.
