Mossberg model 195 12Ga. incredible condition. If there's a Mossberg collector on the planet, he should have this one. Not sure of the age, But the cleaning kit was purchased the same day as the gun. This thing has never been on a ride in a duck boat. Looks like it spent its life in the gun cabinet. 26" bbl to the end of the comp. 12 ga. 2-3/4" chamber. Bore looks like a mirror. Blue about 99%, only place the blue looks worn is on the bolt. Stock appears to have the original finish on it. I haven't seen a wooden cleaning rod like this for sale since I was a kid, and I'm 75 now. I'll throw in the cleaning kit with it. When I was about 12 ish I used to duck hunt with the neighbor kid, he had a 16ga. like this one, the gun looked like it had been drug behind a truck, tape holding the stock on, the trigger no longer worked, and it would go off when he closed the bolt. So, he would just close the bolt and use it like a trigger. Somehow, he could knock ducks out of the sky dead as a brick. I remember telling him, don't ever hand that gun to anyone, or someone will be dead in a matter of seconds. He hunted with it like that for years. No adult supervision back then, I have no idea why I'm still alive. $375.00 - I'll pay shipping and insurance. I've reached my limit with 10 pictures, I'll try and post some more below.

Wow, I grew up shooting one of those in a 20 gauge back in 1959 at the age of nine. When I was 12 I graduated to a 12 gauge semi auto. Lots of birds were shot with that little 20. Hasn't been shot for 60 years but I will never let it go. Too many memories.
