a long time ago, before i got married, i had one of these. a 101 diamond grade 2 bbl trap set offered by winchester in a promo around 1985. it had a black diamond in the pg below the safety. if you bought it, theyd give you 3 free full cases of ammo with it. it was a 1795.00 deal delivered. i couldnt miss with it and scored my best scores with it, early on in my shooting career. honestly, i never used the o&u. i was hooked on that un-concept. then the first sand box happened. away it went. it had a 30" o&u with a 32" un-single with winchokes. was it made by marrochi? i always thought it was made in japan. maybe just the case was marrochi. none the less, anyone have a lead on one? looking for one with 0 CAST, unaltered, 98-99%, in complete org case, and with duel palm swells. lmk.

The early 101's were made by Olin / Kodensha inTochigi Japan. They were made in the 1970'S into the early 90's most models stopped in 1988. Yes Father hood brings new responsibilities wish I still had some things from back then. A friend sold his 101 diamond grades off this winter 1 - unsingle and 1 - O/U 2 differant guns. He shot them well but up graded to a Kx6 special.Krieghoff and loves it . Luck be with you in your search.
bobski, I sent you an email, about having a combo set that you are looking for. Just making sure that you received it. Thanks Heidi
bobski send a PM to RogerC I think he still shoots one. Im with an understanding that the 32 in unsingle was a limited run of the 101 Diamond Grade.
