i believe 32 inch barrels were available on all grades from the Sterlingworth on up

a Becker Special for waterfowl would be a close as you get to a goose gun,

Fox made no 10 gauges

PS - i forgot the Savage made wildfowl 3" Sterlingworths

Fox guns were made with 32 inch barrels in all grades and all gauges. Fox listed guns with 32 inch barrels as the "Trap Model". They are not common in 12 gauge but not rare. They are much less common in16 gauge guns and considered rare in 20 gauge guns. I have an AE grade 16 gauge with 32 inch barrels but I have only seen one 20 gauge Sterlingworth with 32 inch barrels unfortunately it is a family heirloom and not for sale....yet.
