Calgary Bill Sidelock Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 288 Likes: 10 Calgary, Alberta, Canada	Originally Posted by Bob Cash Here's a pretty scarce Model 21, 20 gauge 2 barrel set. 1950 26 and 30 inch barrels. The 26 inchers are Mod/IC and the 30's are Full/Full. Both with 3 " chambers. Nice! Factory records indicate it went back to New Haven in 1977 to be restocked and made "Factory New". So, regarding Winchester Model 21's, is Factory work looked upon any differently than say any good gunsmith restoration or even CSMC? Very nice gun, indeed! 20 Ga 3" guns are hard to come by. Anybody know when Winchester made their first 20 ga 3" M21 gun? I'm sure collectors prefer factory original guns. Next best would be repairs/modifications by the manufacturer. There definitely are skilled craftsmen who can equal or surpass factory work but there are also a lot of less skilled tradesmen.

The 20 gauge Magnum Grade was introduced in 1953 according to Ned Schwing's book..
