Winchester 1897 Trench Gun Description
The Winchester 1897 Trench gun, also known as the broomstick and war crime stick, is a variant of John Brownings second design for a pump-action shotgun. This was designed with a trigger sear that prevented the hammer from dropping until the bolt was fully locked allowing for an incredibly fast fire rate - a feature that American Soldiers and Marines took advantage of in WWI.Technical Data
