I've got one 3 frame. A 12 ga. Lifter from 1874. Based on grade, and dimensions, I'm guessing it was a pigeon gun. Should have an F350 Super Duty emblem on it.
Now, a 6 frame. That's some kinda stout gun. You could rig a horse to it and plow a field if you wanted.

I take it your 1874 3 frame is not marked with the frame size? Guns from that era usually are not marked.

Correct. I'm going by firing pin width.

Mills, to have a wife who says "you snooze, you lose" to a Parker collector is one fine and brave woman.
As to the comparison of a 1.5 to a 6 frame, one is a shotgun, the other could be considered a small cannon.

Not a gouge. Just some light pitting that is where the barrel flat sat on the frame on that side.
