The new Model 12 Pump BB gun from Winchester Air Rifles resembles the classic shotgun of yesteryear that set the standard for all repeating shotguns of its era. As such, the Model 12 BB gun is ideal to teach gun safety and marksmanship skills to today's youth, along with the mechanics of a pump shotgun.

The iconic Winchester Model 12 shotgun has a new little brother.


Delivering velocity at 350 fps, the Model 12 BB gun shoots a single BB with each pump of the gun. A simple, cross-bolt safety and easy-load door on the barrel will help youngsters pick up the basics of using it. The magazine is a 12-round, spring-loaded one. A reservoir has a capacity of 250 BBs.

Length of pull is 14 inches, and the total length is 34.25 inches.

Although no MSRP is available as of yet, our guess is the new Model 12 Pump BB Gun should be priced in line with other firearms reproduction air guns of this type in the $40-$60 range. As soon as the price is available we plan to share it.
