I was up at my dad's this weekend and he was getting his shotguns out so we could go shoot some skeet and he pulled out my great grandpa's Winchester model 12-20 and told me to take it home I hadn't seen this gun since I was about 10 years old. Dad let me use it the first time he took me dove hunting. The next season he had bought me a Stevens 20 gauge to use (that I still have) and hadn't seen the Winchester until today. I think it's neat to have grandpa's old gun, I never really knew him, he died when I was 5 years old and before that he had had a stroke that caused his speach to be bad so I don't remember him talking to me. This old gun is the only thing that I have to connect with him, so it's real cool that I was able to take it home. Does anybody have any knowledge about the history of this model of shot gun? I did some seaching and it seem to be somewhat of a collectors piece. Also is there a way I can tell the manufacturing date?
