That's a really good deal on what is IMO, the best pump shotgun.
(I've never owned a Winchester Model 12, so I may not know)
My father no longer hunts (he's about to be 89), and had a Model 870 Wingmaster 20 gauge with a modified choke.
I have a nephew who has just taken a job as a Project Manager for a construction company. I insisted that he take the gun, because I thought his job might afford him the opportunity to take potential clients on Georgia quail hunts. A Wingmaster is a fantastic shotgun, period.
It may even more perfect in a situation where you want to pull a superb 50 year old shotgun out of a case and be able to talk about it belonging to your grandfather.

I have several wingmasters similar, just the best most reliable pump guns, and this one at a good price, wish I had room for this one
Those old wingmasters have nice blueing.

I probably have too many shotguns as it is (I have an 12 gauge 870 Magnum Express with screw in choke tubes), so I don't really have room for this one, but that's a super deal.

Wingmasters are really a large step above regular 870's. Not in terms of reliability, but just fit, finish, quality and smoothness.

Bummer, if it was a 20 gauge I would jump all over this one. Very good seller to work with

I was born on grandma’s couch so a couple of days later dad bought a 870 wing master with the $ saved with no hospital visit. Mom wasn’t impressed. Earlier model than this one. Great guns.

Does it shoot 3” or just 2-3/4?
