Hello,
I recently inherited a Model 12 16 ga.
It appears to have a 26 inch barrel and modified choke.
It has field grade ? stocks, no checkering.
I am told it is a factory vent rib with round posts and donut bases.
The blueing is near perfect, and only the butt stock has a couple nicks from being in a gun cabinet.
the serial # is 1686XXX, told dating 1958.
I know my father bought this in the early 60's and he never shot it, although I am sure it has been shot a little.
I would greatly appreciate any information you can give me, and of course I am interested in its potential value.
Thank you very much.
Michael
