I have always been under the impression that reverse chokes of F/M in older guns were primarily for ducks or possibly driven game. I am looking for information for other possibilities for reverse chokes. The two guns I have with reverse chokes are a 4 frame Grade 5 10 gauge 30" F/M top lever hammer w/o dolls head and a 1 frame Grade 3 14 gauge hammerless 30" 3 dog gun. Both of these guns are before serial number 57600. I would like to find other ideas or thoughts for possible other purposes for reverse chokes.
