He was the Illinois state champion in 1982. I'm going to have my brother check the serial#. He is married to my friends daughter. He has all of the information on the guns sold out of the estate. If it is I know she will want it. Again keeping my fingers crossed.

Like this one.

Nice Model 12 but produced by U.S. Repeating Arms not Winchester, still a "Y" model 12, cast receiver and few other parts. You should check with Pauline on Shotgun World if engraved in house or outside engravers as remember those were not engraved by custom shop. Pauline will know for sure ......................
