Do these contraptions keep the shell from falling out when the gun is open? Yup, we need pictures. What makes you think the gun was made for pigeons? Does it have anything to do with the "gas checks"?

If this is similar to a gun I recently read about on the DG forum, there are spring devices projecting into the chambers that maintain tension on the shells to prevent them from dropping out.

Gas Checks
[QUOTE=Gordon Sjue;26879]I r "The interesting thing about this gun is that it has what I would call gas checks in each barrel which depress when loaded."
GAS CHECKS ? ... Are you saying that the "gas checks" intended to release gases from behind the chamber to reduce the amount of the gun's recoil ? I remember seeing a photo of a double barrel gun that had a shallow groove machined into the face of the standing breech that ran from the firing pin to the outside edge of the receiver ... And the caption said the groove was supposed to reduce the gun's "kick" by releasing gasses from behind the chamber ... Odd stuff like that is always fascinating so I can't wait to see your pictures.

The circular groove around the firing pin, along with the groove leading outward, channels gases away from the shooter in the event of a ruptured /pierced primer.
