No; there are many smallbore AAHs out there. Another caveat: not every gun built with high stock dimensions, tight bores, no safety and without ejectors can be automatically assumed to be a "pigeon gun." But the "never say never" axiom rules. Unless the Stock or Order Books specifically mentions pigeon or trap shooting (e.g,.percent pattern required with specific brand and/or size shot), it is just another long barreled tight choked gun. Absent documentation, I usually rely on "the test of the duck"; if it walks, swims, and flies like a duck, it is pretty safe to say it is at least a member of the Anseriformes.
