I have a 20 ga model 12 that is new in the box and unfired. Winchester no longer has a historian and nobody can seem to tell me when this gun was manufactured. The serial number is (MT0352). Thanks for your help.

Bobby,

Your Model 12 is a modern reproduction. More than likely, it was manufactured in Japan. The original Model 12 production ended in May 1964 at serial number 1970885.
