Any Winchester Connoisseurs?

Curious to know if there are any friends of old Winchester rifles and shotguns here.

What Winchester models do you like?

When I was a kid, my Dad gave me his first shotgun he got when he was a kid. A model 11 Remington automatic. I never really liked the Remington auto. Mostly didn’t like it aesthetically and the automatic design. My cousin let me borrow his model 12 Winchester for a turkey hunt one day and I killed a gobbler flying at 74 steps. Folded him up like a lawn chair. That following week I went and bought a model 12 with a 28” modified barrel and I’ve hunted exclusively with it ever since.

As far as rifles I love the model 1886, 1894 and the 1895.

I’m a solid Winchester fan.
