WHEN I got serious into collecting ,I was buying all kinds of guns in great to excellent condition . Among these guns were English 12 bores---as I recall I purchased several guns "as in the English vernacular were 12/20's --that was a light 12 bore on a 20 bore frame . I wish I still had these guns--W.C Scott ,Purdey, Lang, and others.
Just a little side note. Bill---I will see if I can get ahold of those blue prints and make a copy of that "note" on the drawing for your records.
