An Exceptionally clean example of this much loved Model 1400 Semi-automatic 12g shotgun from Winchester.
Brought in by the original buyer who purchased it as a present for his father well over 40 years ago. He states that though his father ‘loved’ the gun he never fired it after the initial try out. For some reason he found he could hit very little, in fact nothing! He tucked it into his cabinet and went back to his ‘trusted’ traditional English Side by Side. As such he reckons there will have been less than 100 cartridges through and that is being generous. It is likely closer to around a single box of 25! Obviously this cannot be verified. However, the gun IS in great overall condition other than a few very light marks from an over filed cabinet. (We have all been there)! Sadly he has now departed but left the gun, hence now for sale.
The multi choke 28 ½” barrel comes with a full compliment of the original three ‘Winchokes’ and spanner as supplied. These protrude by approx. ¼” (6mm) and screw in / out by hand as well. The stock has some nice grain pattern with a pull length of 13 7/8” (353mm) with the original butt plate. A 2 ¾” (70mm) chamber and 3/8” (10mm) raised and ventilated rib with front sight bead complete the spec. The action is has a simple plain black gloss finish. Chequering is all still like new too. Overall a straight 49” (1245mm) tipping the scales at 7Lbs 9 1/2oz (3.444Kg). Very possibly a nice choice for a collector.
