There are many famous shotguns to collect, but right up there with the best is Winchester's 1887 lever action shotgun. I know most of us know the story of how it came about, but the story is just as interesting to read again.
These Guns are some of Mick's Winchester 1887 collection. The 1887 is really something quite special, its unique lever action 6 shot shotgun takes some beating not only as a reliable firearm, but for its interest value. This gun really does have some interesting history. In the early 1880's Winchester asked John Moses Browning to design for them a 12 bore shotgun, but it had to look like a Winchester, so this he skillfully did. The result is this fantastic and distinctively looking Winchester lever action shotgun. It takes 4 cartridges in the pipe, one in the barrel and an extra one laying inside the mechanism totalling six. Built in 1888, they are still as good today as when they were made.
Now after J.M.Browning sold the guns patent to Winchester in the early 1800's he set off on a two year mission across America as a member of the Mormon Church. About two months into his mission, he and a fellow Mormon came upon a gun shop in Georgia, and there they saw his now manufactured gun on display in the window. They entered and John asked to handle the gun, he operated the action with ease and to the gunsmith's surprise. When asked by the gunsmith how on earth he knew how to operate this brand new design of gun never seen before, his colleague proudly answered " He designed it " with this the gun smith quickly took back the gun and wanted them to leave the shop. It seems he didn't believe or trust these seemingly strange Mormon evangelists !
This gun has been made even more famous by Bonnie Parker of the infamous duo Bonnie & Clyde, and later by Arnie Schwarzenegger in Terminator 2. Both guns were cut down versions of what you see here, and unlike Arnie in T2, Bonnie really did shoot some people with hers.
