Winchester Model 1897

The two hitmen that shoot “Ross” and later shoot at Bullitt from the Charger during the car chase use a Winchester Model 1897. The Model 1897 was designed by John Browning and had an exposed hammer like a lever action rifle. The version used by the hitman is what is known as a “takedown” model. After he shoots the Ross impersonator you can see it taken down when he seperates the barrel/magazine from the receiver. It appears the hitman’s model has had the stock and the barrel cut down, the barrel to at least 18". The shotgun seems to be a 12 gauge, but there is no way to make certain of its actual gauge.
