VietNam issue. Impossible to fake. Solid frame (no 1/4 turn and off, barrel is fully threaded), full choke (and not marked) s/n on the face of receiver and barrel, no anvil.

Great find!
Are the P proof marks on the receiver and barrel serifed or plain? And if you care to divulge, what serial number is it?
Senior Member
They are plain. S/N S229XX

Just curious, Does anyone else have a M87 Winchester lever action 12 ga shotgun?
Senior Member
Seriously Dude what does this have to do with my post?
Senior Member
cannot find an "S" series during that year, you sure about the SN?
Senior Member
Yes of course. The contract guns were specially numbered, and can not be faked.
There is a chart here:
