My Remington friend claims they made a gun similar to the FE called a pigeon gun before they coined the F Trap term . He also claimed they changed from Pigeon to F Trap because even in the very early 1900’s the animal rights folks were getting started . This gun he just got has no safety and had 32” fluid steel barrels .
