Howdy Y'all,

I been hankering for another 97 Winchester, wanted a solid frame riot gun, well I looked here and there, found one at one of the gun auction sites, the gun looked good I bet on it and ended up with it at the opening bid price. Well I have been collecting old irons for a few years and I have had more than a few old Winchester's including 97's but this old gun is 98+ percent original condition, not reblued not messed with stone cold mint. It serial number put it 1917 and its solid frame CYL marked barrel. I just had to show somebody figured my BOLD brothers and sisters would be the ones.

Brother BBB,  That is a beautiful old gun. I would like to find one like that and get an extra barrel to cut down to 18.5 inches. Enjoy it Brother.  "May the wind always be at your back."   Texas Lawdog

I was showing it to my 85 year old dad this past weekend he said this was the first new 97 he had seen in a long time.
