Hello all and happy new year!
I recently acquired a NIB 1300 12 ga with green laminate stock. I have seen these with different turkey scenes engraved on them with the signature. However I have never seen one like the one I received. The turkey scene is engraved in gold and it has a gold tone trigger. It is stamped NWTF 027. If anybody has any info on these I am curious to know more about it. Any info at all is appreciated. Thanks in advance

Re: Winchester 1300 NWTF
Those were a limited run of 500, I have one NIB also but mine is serial number 351 if I remember correctly. I ordered 2 of them and gave one to my brother, he has since passed and I’m not sure who ended up with his guns.

Not worth much, pump gun. Nothing compared to an 870, send you a USPS money order for 275.00 and I'll pay shipping. BTW, your welcome

027 is a super low number
collectability is high for that gun. The 20GA even more so
Re: Winchester 1300 NWTF
Yes I knew the 20ga were super rare. Only seen 2 of them ever and a good friend of mine has one. They must’ve made 500 of these in every configuration of the different scenes then, because my dad has a grey laminate version that’s also stamped 027

Spider316.....rumor has it, 027 was used in a drive-by shooting. I'll go ahead and seize it as evidence and we can talk from there!

I gos me some 6.5s in the basement to sweeten the seize, and the "engravin" is probably tampered serial numerals !CamoMan4025 wrote: ↑January 1st, 2022, 10:30 pm Spider316.....rumor has it, 027 was used in a drive-by shooting. I'll go ahead and seize it as evidence and we can talk from there!

I've got the warrants in hand, headed there now, just one more Bold Rock and I'll be rolling. I've got 15 SWAT guys going too. I just hope that he cooperates. The other issue Spider is what other weapons will I have to seize. You'd better bring the northern end ProStaff team with you!
