WINCHESTER 1300 FIELD 12 GA

Description:
Guns Listing ID: 593781



The Winchester 1300 is a pump-action shotgun that was nicknamed the \"Speed Pump\" for its fast cycling action. Key features include a rotary bolt that unlocks upon firing and uses recoil to assist the slide‚s rearward movement, a lightweight and handy feel, and a detachable barrel. It was produced in 12, 16, and 20-gauge, and the Defender model is a popular variant, often featuring a 7-round capacity (7+1) and a shorter barrel.
Key features
\"Speed Pump\" action: The action is exceptionally fast. After the shot, the rotary bolt lugs disengage from the barrel extension, and recoil helps the slide move backward, making it easier and faster to pump the next shell.
Lightweight and balanced: The Model 1300 is described as being lightweight and handy, making it a natural pointer.
Detachable barrel: The barrel can be easily detached, and the spring is captured to prevent it from being lost.
Variants: The Model 1300 came in various grades, including hunting, skeet, and defensive models. The Defender variant, for example, was a common defensive model.
Materials: It was available with an alloy receiver, and the Defender model often featured a wood stock and a corn cob-style forend.
Common configurations
Defender model: A popular variant for home defense, the Defender typically includes a 7-round capacity (one in the chamber and seven in the tube) and a shorter barrel.
Gauge: Produced in 12, 16, and 20-gauge.
Barrel length: Varies by model, but the Defender often has a shorter barrel.
Why it‚s popular
Fast cycling: The \"Speed Pump\" design allows for quick follow-up shots, which is beneficial for both sport shooting and defense.
Simplicity: It is a simple, no-frills design that is known for being functional and reliable.
Discontinued status: The fact that it‚s a discontinued model adds to its appeal for those who appreciate classic, vintage firearms.
