THE NEW

Hammerless Repeating Shotgun 20 GAUGE TAKE-DOWN It weighs only 5% pounds, yet it is the strongest repeating shotgun on the market, all metal parts throughout being made of Nickel Steel, It exhibits a grace of outline and perfection of detail and finish unapproached by repeating guns of other makes. It is free from unsightly screws and pins to collect rust and dust and work loose; and its solid breech, closed at the rear, gives it extreme safety. In operation, it works with an ease and smoothness unknown in guns of other makes. It is simple to load and unload and simple to take down; being separated into two parts easily and quickly without tools In shooting qualities, it is fully up to the established Winchester standard, which has no superior. Ask your dealer to show you one, or send to Winchester Repeating Arms Co., New Haven, Conn., for handsome, illustrated circular descrying it. A 20-GAUGE GUN FROM BUTT TO MUZZLE.
