I have found several of the Fox Gun Co., Balto., Md., U.S.A. guns which were only made in 1898 and 1899 to have 12-gauge 3 1/4 inch chambers.

Shot string is way less important than ammunition manufacturers make it sound. I'll let someone else figure out how far a goose flies while a 12 foot shot string arrives. A bird flying at anything less than a 90 degree angle from the shooter can forget about a long shot string saving his life, especially when the proper ammunition is selected. Read Bob Brister, Shotgunning The Art and the Science, chapter 23. He tells it all.
