what i find interesting is having that 3 1/2 inch chambered gun changed to 2 7/8 chambers...was it because of recoil or did the 2 7/8 chambers pattern better or what....i know major askins wanted to hunt with a 8 gauge with 2 3/4 ounce loads...but since they out lawed the 8 gauge for waterfowl he was partly the one who helped get the 3 1/2 inch 10 ga gun be made from ithaca in 1932 or so.....charlie
