Your Winchester model 12 skeet shotgun in 28 gauge is a very rare bird!!If your shotgun has a 60%original finish to it.The price could easily be 3,900 dollars to 4500 dollars.If your shotgun has more original finish to it we could be talking 6,000 dollars and up.I would have your shotgun appraised by a member of the Winchester collectors assoc.or a Person who is qualified to give you a correct evaluation of your shotgun.Good luck and enjoy that wonderful rare Winchester shotgun.By the way if your length of pull is 14 inches,then this is a pre-war shotgun.(1933-1941)The Winchester model 12 skeet version was made from 1933-1976.
