The Winchester Xpert Model 96 was developed as a durable field-grade over/under shotgun built in Japan by Kodensha for Winchester. Sharing much of its engineering heritage with the respected Winchester Model 101, the Xpert Model 96 combines proven box-lock construction, quality steel components, and attractive walnut furniture in a practical sporting package. The streamlined design emphasizes reliability and balance while maintaining the strong lockup and craftsmanship that have made Japanese-built Winchester over/under shotguns highly regarded among hunters and clay target shooters. Its over/under configuration provides fast barrel selection and a natural sighting plane, making it equally suited for upland hunting, sporting clays, skeet, and general field use. The 30-inch vent rib barrels promote smooth swings and excellent target tracking, while the 3-inch chamber provides versatility with a wide variety of modern 12 gauge loads.
