I yearned for the feel of the Winchester 1890, 1906, 62A, Remington 12... When I was a kid, I used to go shooting in the Essex Junction Sand Put with a friend and a Winchester pump. Slam-fire, let 'er rip! So, when I saw a 1906 in the KTP site, I called in about it. I asked why it was only $375, and the guy said, and I quote "It's pretty worn, almost no finish." So, I had him put it on hold and I drove the three hours today to take a look.
The results are below..... It was $395 out the door, $40 in gas.... Serial number 571xxx, made in 1919.
I managed to get home to the range before the sunset. Quick and dirty shooting at 50 yards. Good enough that I wouldn't considered doing anything to the gun.
The stocks are gum wood, at least the butt stock is. I don't think I'll do anything to this gun except shoot it and put it in the safe. However, I might get some walnut replacement stocks, maybe, but of course I'd keep the originals. For the time being, though I am done with wood......
