serial #100690, 410 bore (3''), 28'' Winchester Special Ventilated Rib barrel choked improved cylinder with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces of this early 1950's shotgun retain about 97% excellent restored blue with light wear on high edges and contact points, and the bolt and carrier remain bright. The checkered straight grip walnut stock and forend are in excellent condition as bery nicely refinished with the checkered black plastic Winchester buttplate giving an about 13 7/8'' length of pull. The Winchester factory markings appear crisp, very possibly having been restruck, the barrel and receiver showing offset ''WP'' proofs, and the receiver extension is numbered to the gun. The barrel appears undated, and according to Schwing's ''The Winchester Model 42'' the choke marking should read ''IMP. CYL.'' instead of the ''IMP-CYL'' stamped on the gun. The shotgun features the first type ''doughnut'' base Winchester rib and is sighted with a red Bradley-style bead. A fine and handsome Model 42 in a desirable configuration.
