Do you mean the Winchester 1897 shot gun?
You’re asking about the lever action shotgun right ?

They all have feeding issues due to design. I would not trust my life to one but they are a fun range toy.
I had one of the early ones and it worked with no problems,then I bought a chiappa 1887 and while it cycled no problem it would not fire if you cocked the hammer manually(light primer strike) it would only fire when you cycled the hammer to full #### with the lever.It was a beautiful gun though
I have the PW-87 model. It’s rough around the edges and not high quality wood, but as long as you work the lever good and keep the chamber clean to prevent stuck shells, it works fine. Just don’t expect too much from a Chinese made gun.
