Restored Pre-War Winchester Deluxe Model 41, .410 Bolt Action MFD 1920-1941 C&R Our Assessment: Only about 25,000 of these shotguns were produced from 1920 to 1941. Most production ceased in 1934 and all guns were unserialized. Being produced during the great depression, not many of these were produced and they are somewhat of a Winchester Shotgun rarity. This gun was beautifully restored and upgraded. The tags we still see on it indicate it came from the renown Peter and Patty Murray Collection, though we disagree with them that this factory blue… Regardless, it is a very attractive and relatively scarce shotgun.
