Z8394 12 Ga. "FIELD” Shotshell by Western Cartridge Company
Description: Nice example of a 12 Ga. "Field” window or salesman sample shotshell manufactured by Western. These were popular in the middle to late teens up through the early 20’s. This example has a tan wad with red print. The paper case is a light tanish/pink color with a cut out window so you can see how it’s loaded. The window has yellowed with age but is clear. It has a brass cup with a punched primer. A nice example with a little soiling on the paper case.
