A 2” 12 is something you don’t see often as few were made in the 1930s. The Brit gunmakers made these light weight guns with great handling qualities. You basically have a 12 gauge proportional gun in the 5.5 lb weight class; lighter than a smaller proportioned 20 gauge. They aren’t an all purpose gun, but something made to support a passing light weight fad in the 1930s. Charles Lancaster came out with 2” pigmy cartridges in the late 1890s and advertised you could carry more cartridges than the normal 2.5” cartridge.
