Serial Number: 6531
Most double gun enthusiasts are well aware of the reputation earned by the Winchester Model 21; a gun of far superior strength and mechanical genius that was under the micro management of John Olin himself. With only 32,000 produced (compared to 250,000 Parkers!), any high condition Model 21 is a valuable, investment quality firearm sure to appreciate as you enjoy its use. The Trap/Skeet Grade was only produced for about 5 years, so it is scarce as a Grade. If you consider the fact that they made 5 times more 12 gauge guns than 16 gauge guns, and almost 3 times as many 20 gauge guns than 16's, then a Trap/Skeet Grade in 16 gauge becomes a very hard to find Model 21. From 1930 to 1943 they only made 1034 16 gauge guns in all grades, most of them Standard Grades or Skeet Grades. This gun, sn6531 made in 1934, has been properly restored to new factory condition and has fantastic wood. The Trap Grade was said to have special attention to boring, chokes, higher stock dimensions, and finish with highly figured wood, and checkered side panels. The "Trap/Skeet" was a skeet choked Trap Grade. What a find in this gun as a 16 bore!
