I just picked up a Winchester pump a few days ago and the store I got it from said it was a ranger 120 and fair enough it has ranger 120 with a winchoke on the barrel but my father has had a ranger 120 for 30 years and it’s different
this shotgun I picked up looks identical to images of a 2200 when I google it
the serial number is L578464 it’s a 12 gauge
if Anyone has any info on what I may have bought or what year it was made it’s much appreciated thank you.

Hello Jordon
I will assume you meant to type “1200”. S/N L578464 is a Model 1200 that was manufactured in the 1969/1970 time frame. The Model 120 Ranger was introduced in 1981 as an “economy” variant of the Model 1200, and as such, the barrels can be interchanged between the two models.

I just inherited a Winchester Ranger Model 120 12 GA, serial number L1490061, from my father. The specifications do not match because the barrel measures 18.11 inches. Has it been modified or were they produced this way at one time? Thank you in advance for your reply. Best regards from France.

Your Model 120 Ranger was manufactured in the year 1983. Unfortunately, the barrel has been cut down (shortened). The standard barrel length was 28-inches.
