WTB: Trigger Group for Winchester Model 12

Postby mbree on Mon Sep 17, 2012 12:16 pm

I am looking for a full trigger group (I have seen it referred to as a trigger guard group as well) for a Winchester Model 12. Please drop me a PM if you have one you would be willing to part with or know of a source.

Are you looking for a new replacement, or vintage trigger group?

The vintage trigger group had the old "full auto" style action where the shotty will fire again just by closing the action if you kept the trigger down, whereas with the new replacements IIRC the trigger has to be reset before it can be pulled again.

Just a clarification.
If you're reading this, there are better than even odds you are a d-bag.

It is a Y series from late 73, and my wife's grandfather had it converted to a release trigger for shooting trap. She is interested in getting it into a usable condition again, but is not comfortable with the release trigger. So, I guess I would prefer the redesigned group with the proper disconnect to bring it up to a safe level for her and anyone else who may try it out.

I had not heard of that 'issue' with Model 12s, but I haven't looked up much outside of the serial number to get a date range and rough value.

Thanks for the heads-up!
