    Winchester 1897

    Picked this up today. I sold a couple years ago and regret doing that. It has minor pitting but overall not too bad. May duracoat it someday. but right now i will leave it the way it is.

    Please don't duracoat it... Blue it like an 1897 deserves to be.

      Congrats! It's a great shotgun, and I bet you'll enjoy it. Just leave it as it is, don't duracoat it. There's always some new 870 or Mossberg for that

          I can have it professionally blued but it would cost a lot as they have to address the pitting first. Duracoat won't cover the pitting either.

          I'll leave it the way it is.

            Good! That's its battle look, anyway. One of mine looks like that, and I don't mind it at all:

                          There very cool shotguns. I got three of them. Two are used for Cowboy Action Shooting with a 20 and 22 inch barrel and a 32 inch one thats used for trap shooting. All take downs.
