According to the ad, this was a 1952 gun shipped direct from the factory to Pachmayr, who then customized it with lots of engraving, including on the barrels, and the sideplates, etc. Supposedly previously owned by a well-known personality (not named in the ad), it appears to have been used barely, if at all. Appears to have a Winchester letter, but that exposure is blown so I can't read it.

Not my taste, but it surely was someone's.

Interesting but not my taste either.

I have a plain old, run of the mill 12 gauge 21 from the early years with full chokes, double triggers and 30 inch barrels. It is one of my favorite guns.

Ruined what could have been a classic Model 21 with the gold inlays.

Some Winchester collector will see it and gobble it up and put it away.

A very Germanic form of engraving. Including the wood, a rather over done piece.

I think I threw up a little in my mouth.
