I recently acquired a 12 gauge shot gun through some wheeling and dealing. Its a Kessler Westchester "Buffalo Bill Cody" 12ga. Full choke, 2 3/4 shell.confused: I can't find a thing on this Manufacturer, nor can i find prices on it. All i want is some info on the shotgun, i.e. years made, price its worth, maybe even where to buy some parts for it.:
Mr. Wilson, I'm new to the forum so I just read your post. I can't give you any real info on your Kessler other than a schematic parts list from Gun Parts Corp. (aka Numrich Arms). The people at GPC could tell you about it I bet. gunr
2 3/4" is your standard 12 gauge shell. 3" is your magnum. 2 5/8" is an old size still floating around. Aguila makes some cool little shells too.
Info on shotgun Its not a real good finish, its got some cracks in the wood. It fires great, no jamming when loading the shell from the magazine. Not much else to tell that I can see. I traded a worn out tractor that I bought at a garage sale for $25 for the gun. I thought It seemed alright, since the gun did shoot. I've got a few gun books that have the Kessler manufacturer in it, but i can't find anything about the "buffalo bill cody" edition. Didn't know if it was maybe a special edition, or something.
