I would say yes. If it is a trap gun, then it will more than likely be ideal for trap shooting. Honestly, I wouldn't buy a trap gun until I was sure that I was commited to trap shooting, because you really can't use a trap gun for field applications. If you are a beginner, I would just use my field gun that you probably already have until you get the idea and figure out if trap shooting is something that you like to do. Also, if the gun that you are talking about is a pump, then I, personally, would consider a breakaway. That's just my personal preference. I've never used a pump shotgun for trapshooting, but if I did, I'm sure that I would get tired of the pumping into my hand. A breakaway or semiauto is just so much easier to use. If you're going to be involved in trap shooting, then by all means get it if you want. Have fun!

What does ws stand for on a Winchester model 12?

The "WS" on a Winchester Model 12 stands for Winchester Skeet and it has a full solid rib and is a reasonably rare find these days. As a rule, "WS" stands for "Winchester Special", I've never heard of it in relation to a shot gun. So far as I know "WS" only refers to rifles. Where did you see the mark? it may be an inspector's stamp.
