Mungler Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I had one and it was like a shed to shoot with. I think they change hands at about £150. I wouldn't get too excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Afraid not nicelydoesit.I'm a big fan of Winchester shotguns and have four of them.The 120 was superceded(i think)by the 1200 as sales of the 120 weren't too good,but I believe the 1200 was made with 120 barrels until that source dried up.I am happy to be corrected on any of this as it's some time since I read up on them.If you have a come across a nice Model 12 however,or an 1897 or its predecessor the 1893(which is black powder)then snap them up.Model 42's are very desirable also. None of these are worth vast amounts mind you,but they appreciate rather than the opposite. Your 120 is still a good gun though,even though it's not what you hoped.Sorry.
