Out of the three I have an original Winchester model 1887 lever action shotgun 12 gauge made exactly 1887 (first year production) I am planning to send it to Doug Turnbull and have him try to restore it to its former glory
The lever I selected for this video was a Winchester 1887 in desirable 12 gauge manufactured in first production year. It’s lotted with a beauty 1887 10 gauge, lot #46 in the upcoming Sporting and Collector auction, happening October 4th-7th.
IMO the timer at a SASS competition should make an oldschool "ping" or "gong", not that profane & incongruous 21st century beep. But that's just me, I guess. But would be nicer, wouldn't it?
The SASS categories are separated by style of shooting and attire for the most part. I believe the Frontiersman category is one of the few with a weapon requirement, where you’ll need an external hammer shotgun.

Why are there not different shotgun classes.
Single barrel
Double with hammers
Double box lock (no hammers)
Pump action
Lever action
