Had some work done to my 1897 Winchester had a tune up on the internals for reliability. The barrel cut down to 18.5 and re crowned, I added a big brass front sight bead. I chopped the stock down and added a decelerator pad with a LOP at 12.5. She’s light and nimble points great and takes down for easy storage currently only running low recoil buck and slugs through her.
Picked up my 1897 up from the shop it’s a 1953 model that was reblued prior to my purchase I cut down the barrel to 18.5 shortened the stock added a deceleration pad and a big brass front sight and had a gunsmith replace and hand fit worn internals for reliability
