Several companies over time have tried to produce replicas of the Winchester Model 1887 that could chamber the modern smokeless shells.

From 1901 until 1920, approximately 80,000 1887 shotguns were produced. Between 18, around 65,000 1887 shotguns were produced. Although the design for the 1887 was technologically fine, demand for lever action shotguns waned after the introduction of the M1897, and other pump action weapons. No 12 gauge version was offered due to the fact that Winchester did not want their own weapon to compete with their 12 gauge Model 1897. Winchester produced a 10 gauge called the Model 1901 to get around this. When the smokeless powder shells became more common, it became clear that the lever for the 1887 was not strong enough to handle them. The 1887 was designed for 12 gauge black powder shells, though a 10 gauge version was produced soon afterwards. However, they did introduce Browning’s idea as the M1893, which was an early version of the Model 1897 Trench Gun.Īt the time, shotgun shells used black powered as propellant. However, the Winchester company chose to use the lever action design. The 1887 was designed by John Browning, who suggested that a pump action would be a better design. The lever action design was chosen due to the fact that Winchester was well known for producing lever action weapons, and it was selected for ‘brand recognition’. There’s a couple from Infinite Warfare, as well as a few more from Modern Warfare 2.The Winchester Model 1887 was a lever action shotgun that was produced by the Winchester Repeating Arms company from the years of 1887 until 1920. These are weapons that were certainly overpowered, but didn’t quite make the cut into the top 10. We’re rounding off our list with some honorable mentions.

Thankfully, they received a major nerf some way into MW2, but they remain the most ridiculous, overpowered weapon in CoD history.

Even if they didn’t manage it, their rapid reload and ridiculous range was near unstoppable. If one wasn’t bad enough, they could be run akimbo and basically guaranteed a one-hit kill.
