Winchester model 12-A? I have my Dads 16g like this he used in 70s pheasant hunting in South Dakota, solid gun.
Have my Dad's old Winchester 97 in sweet 16. Well my oldest son's now. These old dolls could be slam fired. They also out shoot a 12Ga on distance.
He got it as a wedding gift from his new FIL in 1933 right at the bottom of the Great Depression.
Nobody had any money for gifts and such in that time. At least my family did not.
But that gun kept things going.
Prime fox pelts at the time were very high. And Dad got 4 dollars USD per day plus his shells to hunt fox all winter from daybreak to sunset.
That was a fortune. Men working in the bush all day with a cross cut and an axe maybe got a dollar or 2 for all day in the cold.
Whenever that gun came out, he would tell that story, about how the 16 Winchester kept him and the family's table.
A lot of those old girls were take downs as well.
