Winchester Model 12 Butt Stocks
Hello,
I just found a nice original butt stock for my Winchester Model 12 16 gauge. It has a few scratches on it that I would like to touch up. What did Winchester use to stain and protect their stocks? It is a 1956 model so I am assumming it might be a varnish. Has anyone tried refinishing their Model 12 stock? Where can I get the right screws to mount the butt plate? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello,
I finally bought a Winchester Model 12 16 gauge. The gun is in very good condition except it has a different butt stock that had been added. Does any one have any advise on where I could purchase one. My gun was made in 1956. Would a 12 gauge butt stock fit or did Winchester have ones for specific gauges? Does anyone reproduce butt stocks that would fit my gun. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.0 -
Do a Google search on "Winchester Model 12 Stocks" and it will turn up various options. There are companies that reproduce them and there are some originals as well as high grade custom stocks and forends. The 16 gauge Model 12 has a smaller frame (reciever) than the 12 gauge, therefore a 12 gauge stock won't do. Good Luck. 0 -
