Almost any surviving Winchester Model 40 shotgun can be considered somewhat rare as very few of them were manufactured and sold.
What is the serial number on the gun in question?

EV – I replied to your other post on the M40, wherever that was in here… 
I’m not sure if Greg D has ever posted up his numbers on this topic (rarity) but I’d enjoy seeing them! A true skeet model (deluxe as we’d call it nowadays) would be pretty “rare” indeed I’d imagine….

Yes! I will also forward the information to Greg Dockter (our resident Model 40 Guru).

Just picked up a M1894 in 38-55. I can send data on it as well if you need it.
