I'm so confused. Schwing claims that 1936 was the first year for the Skeet Grade as a grade unto itself, and shows a picture of the catalog.
The final inspection report on my gun specifies the finish as "Skeet"
The picture on page 109 of Schwings book shows what is referred to in the catalog as 'SKEET Gun'. Nowhere in the catalog is 'SKEET Grade' used.
It's possible that Winchester factory individuals called the 'SKEET Gun' a 'SKEET Grade' but there is no paper that I find available to the public that referred to a 'SKEET Grade'.
