Offered for sale is a highly desirable Winchester Model 21 two barrel smallbore set, featuring both 20 gauge and 28 gauge barrels in a classic and increasingly difficult to find configuration.
The Winchester Model 21 is widely regarded as one of the finest American side by side shotguns ever produced, known for its exceptional strength, balance, and understated elegance. This example stands out as a particularly attractive two barrel set, offering both versatility in the field and strong collector appeal.
Both barrel sets measure 30” in length and are fitted with a raised ventilated matted rib and a single brass front bead. The 20 gauge barrels are choked Modified and Full, while the 28 gauge barrels are choked Improved Cylinder and Modified, making this an exceptionally versatile pairing for upland and sporting applications.
The shotgun is equipped with a single selective trigger and a pistol grip stock with grip cap. The stock dimensions are as follows:
– Length of Pull: 14 7/8”
– Drop at Comb: 1 3/8”
– Drop at Heel: 2 1/8”
– Cast: 1/8” off
The gun weighs 7 lbs. 9 oz., balancing very well for a 30” two barrel smallbore configuration.
One of the standout features of this example is the quality of the walnut, which shows strong figure and depth throughout, elevating the overall presentation well above that of a standard field grade Model 21.
Included with the shotgun is its original leather case with canvas outer cover, completing a highly desirable and well presented package.
Condition is very good overall, showing light, honest wear consistent with careful use. The gun remains mechanically sound and tight, reflecting the durability for which the Model 21 is known.
Smallbore Model 21 two barrel sets particularly in 20 and 28 gauge with 30” barrels are increasingly scarce and continue to see strong demand among collectors and knowledgeable shooters alike.
This example represents an opportunity to acquire a premium configuration Model 21 with exceptional visual appeal and practical versatility.
