Mr. Kuss,

Thank you for sharing. That is an amazing gun.
Have you shoot it much to see how it patterns, etc.

I am also curious as to the choke, really the amount of constriction in each barrel.

Thank you again,

John

Dean, the G retailed for $120 and the P retailed for $95. A $10 allowance (discount) was allowed on each, a correction in the original order. William Wagner was normally allowed a substantial discount which the person writing the order apparently did not allow for in the original pricing. There is no clue as to the original purchaser from Wagner. The G was ordered at 15 1/16. The P was ordered at 14 14. It is probable that the weights were taken from finished guns since the difference is so small. The rechambering to 4" shells was "free". Excuse me for answering this question for Jeff, but I don't know how accessible his information is to him. OK, Jeff, there are those other than I who would like to know where the other gun is. What have you learned? I have not seen the stock book entries for these guns which would give patterning information unless the page is cut off, which most are.
