[QUOTE="adamsredlines, post: 3674060, member: 40561"] That 3rd digit is important. 1897 is the pump/"slide action". If I'm remembering correctly, John Browning wanted to do the pump first but Winchester "knew best" and wanted a lever...so he set aside the pump design and made them a lever shotgun. Then 10 years later he dusted off the pump design, they brought it to market and the rest is history. [/QUOTE]
