Default 32 inch 20 survey

Several have posted about their 32 inch 20's and hunting with them. I'd like to know what frame size these guns are on. If these were meant for waterfowling I would think they would be an a one frame. I have one that came out of California with factory 3 inch chambers but it's an 0 frame, just seems light for a small bore duck gun.

The 3” 20’s weren’t developed for heavier loads or increased downrange energy. The 3” shells of the day just used thicker wads necessitating a longer shell and chamber. They had basically the same ballistics and charges of the shorter shells.
