My dad worked at Winchester in product planning I have the very 1st 20g 101 ever made . It was sent from kadenja for approval before production was allowed to commence.

That gun is real treasure! I have almost the same gun, 101 Pigeon grade XTR Trap. 30 inch. 16mm top rib, ventilated mid rib, oiled stock and dated 1982. Weighs in at 8lb 6oz. Mine was made in Japan, i believe the very early 101s were made in the USA. I am in the UK and the 101 in all configurations was very popular in Europe around the late 70s and 80s.

I own this exact gun and have been trap shooting with it since I was 12 (I'm 34 now). I have an estimated 8,000 rounds through it and she has never failed me. Thanks dad

5:15 ring scratch 😆

👍Beautiful Shotgun!👍 I had the _”Winchester 101 Diamond Grade Trap”_ 💎; great shooting & looking guns!! Sold it a couple years ago after thousands of rounds thru it with _zero_ issues. I would’ve kept it; however, unfortunately my Dad passed away & I inherited several trap guns. My “daily” over/under is now a _”Remington 3200 Trap Special”_ with custom AAA furniture & gold inlays;...literally _hundreds of thousands_ of rounds thru it (& many, many championships won) since my Grandpa special ordered it in ‘73!! 😳 & Yes (for those that know these guns), the recall/upgrade was done years ago. 😂👍

I have this same gun with the case from my grandfather. Love it so much such a great shotgun

In 2003 I offered a 101 skeet,brand new never fired,payed $400 for it probably best gun bought for price.

That is beautiful but I would have wore gloves.. I just love it..

I've got one like this, but with ventilated barrels. I bought it in the early 1980,s. I adore it and I always keep it loaded in case of an emergency.

My mom bought me one in 1984 for 1143.00. I still have it. Great gun.

I had one without the case but had original box , it was from the mid to late 70's never shot. i sold for $2800

When you guys are overseas "Beating the Bushes" for gun deals, it would be pretty easy to pop into a few gunshops and send classic high end rifles and shotguns home on a semi-regular basis. Since the EU has become so anti-gun there may be some great deals out there.

This brings back horrid memories trading off my 101 Trap Pigeon Grade. I would've crapped if Ben had pulled my old gun although I still have its factory box. It was a perfect twin to the one shown here. So it'd be the 1977 era version of the 101 Pigeon. Couldn't count how many times I regretted that trade even though I got my money back after 2-3,000 rds through it.

Absolutely beautiful, I just bought one today a skeet model and can’t wait to shoot it thanks for the video

I have 101 sporter diomond grade and will never sele it .best gun ive owed .made in japen .love it no one makes guns like that any more .

They were made in Japan for Winchester back in the mid 70s a friend of mine had two of them one was an over and under 12 gauge trap and one was a single shot with a 34 inch barrel trap some had gold inlay with a gold trigger I think they are between 1400and $1800 back then.

That's the most gorgeous shotgun I've ever seen omg.

Y’all should have showcased it leaning against t-post on barbed wire fence.

I appreciate fine firearms, and that one is spectacular. I use working class firearms, but God's grace to the new owner. That is a real looker. Should fetch a more than fair price.

Look at the craftsmanship! Remarkable! Best to ya',,,,!

Absolutely gorgeous. I love my 101s. I couldn't bring myself to fire that though. Being it is just pristine that deserves to just stay broken down in the case. Even fitting it together will put bed in marks on the faces. I found an unfired 96 xpert that i only decided to fire because it had no case and a small pit on reciever. Ps gloves dude

winchester 101 grades. skeet Trap Pigeon Diamond Grand European Pigeon Grade presentation grade. same everything for mechanical side. however it was engraving and gold inlay on presentation grade was a difference.

Stunningly beautiful, wow!

That's a beauty!

Beautiful gun but $5K - $10K is way out of my budget. Not saying it won't go for more. That original case and paperwork are probably worth at least another $5K.

i wich i had that shootgun very beatiful tums upp

Very beutiful gun bet it brought a good amout of money at auction.

What year was that made? Serial number? You may be right on with your pricing, depending on serial number, of course...

Beautiful firearm …...

Absolute class

Wow! Thank you

What do you even do with a high-end shotgun like this? I feel like you can't take it out and shoot it or the value drops $2K. I think they are just for rich people to buy from each other over the years and never shoot it.

beautiful

Wow ! no gloves.

Great awesome KZfaq channel 👏👍

What did it sell for

I'd have 1 of this

Nice gun but I can't afford it I'll just have to be happy with my 17s LoL.

USOG wants to: Know your location

And Ben putting his greasy paws on that fine shotgun. I would have taken the gun to a reputable dealer for sale. WAJoke

I own a Winchester 6000 field. It’s in perfect condition. But I can’t find many infos about the gun in the internet. If someone could help I would appreciate.

nah its worth about $150 bucks... ill pay you now thanks!

My Lord!

WOW!!!
