Winchester Model 97 US marked slide action shotgun in Trench Gun configuration with receiver made by Winchester Repeating Arms Company in 1948. 21" round Winchester Proof Steel 12 gauge Cylinder choked barrel with correct "Flaming Bomb" proof beside Winchester Proof. Barrel is fitted with correct style 6 hole heat shield and bayonet lug mount with 1917 Remington bayonet dated 1918 with green leather scabbard. Blued takedown frame in correct serial number range, matching number on magazine tube with "U.S./ (Flaming Bomb)" stamp at lower left hand side of frame. Walnut plain pistol grip stock of correct configuration but missing "GHD" stamping and original buttplate (fitted with M-1 style boot). Stock is marked with "A" on pistol grip (probably a racking letter). Walnut correct corrugated slide handle. Comes with military style sling made by "NOBUCKL". CONDITION: 80% fading blue with carry areas worn to a brown patina. Heat shield is a possible reproduction with this gun possibly being a riot gun at initial construction and then made into a trench gun. Gun is missing stock cartouches and buttplate with stock having 80% original varnish with dings and marks with marks from M-1 rubber boot. Good bore and mechanics. Would make an excellent re-enactors gun with a little clean-up. DLM
