Winchester Model 12 Takedown, 30" barrel, Manufacturing year 1911 according to the serial #. 

Has a small crack on the wrist where it mates with the receiver and heavy scratches on the underside of the stock. If a potential buyer wishes to replace it, it shouldn't be a challenging item to find at a reasonable price. 

There's a decent patch of pitting on the outside of the barrel, it starts about 3¼" inches from the tip and travels until 4¾" down the barrel. 

Personally I would just cut it down to the nearest whole inch. (5") unless you intend for this shotgun to be used for waterfowl as a 30" barrel is pointless otherwise. 

There is some more pitting where the barrel and reciever join for the "takedown" feature, and some pitting on the receiver itself. But none of it is too deep or beyond what could be expected for a shotgun thats over a 100 years old and it is still safe/fireable. 

Buyer pays shipping, comes cleaned and oiled. Recommend a quick 10 minute oiling/wipedown after receiving since older guns like to bleed a little bit of carbon post deep cleanings.
