The Winchester Model 1893, commonly known as Model 93, is an American hammer-action pump-action shotgun designed by John Browning and his brother Matthew, and was produced by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company from May 1893 to June 1897. It was designed to fire 12 gauge black-powder ammunition and found great success initially. However, its success was hampered by the increasing popularity of smokeless powder shotgun cartridges amongst the American shooters, that the Model 1893 was not designed for. This would lead to the Model 1893 to be redesigned and then supplanted by the Winchester Model 1897, the latter which would become one of the most important shotgun designs in history.
