Winchester 1300 Compact

Post by jbwonfire on Sat Dec 31, 2011 11:57 am

Anyone ever heard of a Winchester model 1300 compact? I bought one yesterday. Its a 20ga 2 3/4" & 3" with a short stock, but not as short as a youth model. Pretty cool.

I know remington sells 870 compacts that are longer than the ones labeled "youth". Id assume it is intended for compact adults like ladies, short guys, and tall guys that like short LOP like me. Smile

I know, I am 5'11 and have short arms and small hands. I have never had trouble handling any gun Ive come across but grew up seeing a 13oo Winchester in the Western Auto store and always thought it would be my first 12ga. I bought my first new gun at 17 and it was an 870 Express. Sweet gun but the 1300 has always been in the back of my mind. I have always loved the lines or groves in the wood of the forearm.
