Background: <\/b>These early Model 12s were robust and elegant. The action was smooth as silk, and the lack of a hammer made for a sleek, fast-handling shotgun. It was built for longevity, and many original Model 12s are still in the field today, just as smooth and reliable as the day they left New Haven.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
