Thanks for your input and all your hard work checking out the gun. I am sorry if I upset you. I am not refuting what you have said about the gun--I am just trying to understand the early gunmaking and gauging processes and figure out how a gun with 14 gauge chambers is a 12 gauge. I guess I am just stupid when it comes to this sort of thing. Think I'll just stick with my L.C. Smiths.

P.S. What got me to thinking about this again is I took the gun down to Greentop's to sell and they labelled it a 14 gauge, but offered such a ridiculous price, I brought it back home.
