Was not asking to decide between the two.

My point was that a Model 88 plus a Model 12 was better than the Model 88 by itself

After seeing the picture...I think the next best thing would be to show a picture of an 88 and a 12 AND an "88+12". I don't suppose you've got a 100 autoloader to match that 88 lever gun laying around do ya?


That's a nice pair of Winchesters!
