OK, I'll bite. What was the purported allure of using a long barreled small bore gun in this situation?

The Wigeon Duck Club was in the middle of the largest duck flyaway in North America.
Bagging birds was easy. 12 gauge was no longer a challenge.

Parker salesman Arthur W. DuBray was known in California as "The Father of the Twenty Gauge". He was a popular hunter and competition shooter, but above all, a salesman.
