Most double gun enthusiasts are aware of the reputation earned by the Winchester Model 21; a gun of superior strength and mechanical genius created under the micromanagement of John Olin himself.  From 1930 to 1980 they only made about 2900 twenty-gauge guns in all grades, most of them weighing well over 6 3/4lbs., many over 7lbs.  To find a Model 21 20ga. that weighs just 6lbs. 9oz. is an event.  Anybody who walks long distances in the field appreciates a lighter gun by the end of the day.  Model 21’s are fully capable of shooting the most powerful loads available, SO IF YOU LIKE MAGNUM LOADS FOR PHEASANTS, DUCKS, OR OTHER TOUGH GAME, THIS IS YOUR GUN.  This MODEL 21, sn26964 produced in 1952, shows ALL FACTORY ORIGINAL FINISHES ON THE BARRELS, ACTION, AND TRIGGER GUARD AND THE HIGHLY FIGURED FACTORY WOOD HAVING BEEN FRESHENED UP OVER TIME.  There are few Model 21 guns that wear the factory blue most having been poorly restored.  This M21 is an exception, retaining 98% barrel blue, 90% factory blue on the action, and 50% trigger guard blue.  Most of the Model 21 guns you see have skeet chokes and 26” barrels.  In today’s world the 28” M/F barrels are highly sought after for your tough upland birds and waterfowl…THE ULTIMATE LATE SEASON PHEASANT GUN.  And of course, she will be spectacular at the clays course as well.  See specifications below.  THIS IS A VFI CERTIFIED GUN, MEANING WE HAVE STRIPPED THE ACTION AND FOREND IRON, PUT ALL PARTS THROUGH THE ULTRASONIC CLEANER, INSPECTED ALL PARTS FOR FIT AND FUNCTION, PROPERLY LUBRICATED AND REASSEMBLE THE GUN, A $450 SERVICE IN OUR SHOP.  All VFI certified guns carry a 90-day mechanical warranty.  Who else offers that kind of guarantee?  The gun is now ready for another 73 years of service.  The price is right, and the gun will always be an appreciating asset as you enjoy its use.  Thanks for looking!
