I had your exact gun with double triggers and sold it. I wanted it for Grouse and it was 6 lb 12 oz and I decided it was too heavy to haul up and down the mountains for grouse and I also didn't want to open up the chokes. Would have make a great pheasant gun out west. Wonder where it is now. This was at least 12 years ago. I sold it to a pheasant hunter in Pa who was going to use if for stocked Pa pheasants.

Only reason I want the longer barreled 20 with 3” chambers is for tower shoots at First Mine Run in Baltimore county MD as I have two flats of Browning 20 gauge 3” with #5’s . Yeah I know I don’t need 3” but I’ve got them so why not use them . Rather have an original VHE 20 gauge 1 frame with 32” barrels and 2 7/8” chambers but I don’t think that’s gonna happen .
