Chiappa 1887 Mare s Leg Features The 1887 Mare s Leg shotgun is chambered in 12 Gauge with a 5-round tubular magazine capacity and an 18.5-inch blued steel barrel delivering full-power 2-3/4-inch shotgun performance through the classic Winchester 1887 lever-action mechanism with auto ejection for reliable consistent case clearing with every lever cycle. The color case hardened receiver provides the authentic swirling case color finish that defines the 1887 s heritage aesthetic while the blued barrel delivers a period-correct two-tone appearance that collectors and enthusiasts of the platform expect. The internal safety provides passive protection consistent with the original 1887 design without external safety controls that would break the platform s classic silhouette. The pistol grip lever shotgun is stocked in hand-oiled walnut with a pistol grip configuration and a matching hand-oiled walnut forearm delivering the warm natural grain appearance and tactile feel of properly finished walnut throughout a platform that is as enjoyable to handle as it is to display. A bead front sight provides a clean fast sight acquisition for close-range shotgun applications across defensive field and range use. The compact 27.5-inch overall length and color case hardened receiver make the 1887 Mare s Leg as visually compelling on display as it is capable in the field. Chiappa built the 1887 Mare s Leg as a faithful continuation of one of the most iconic lever-action shotgun configurations available combining authentic color case hardening and hand-oiled walnut with robust 1887 mechanics and auto ejection in a compact pistol grip package. The combination of a pistol grip stock 18.5-inch barrel and color case hardened receiver produces a lever-action shotgun that stands alone in terms of heritage character and visual impact at this barrel length. For collectors cowboy action competitors and lever-action shotgun enthusiasts who want an authentically finished 1887 Mare s Leg this is the definitive choice.
