I'm pretty sure the WP Chrysler gun is a 40" 16 and it resides in Texas, near Dallas, in a private collection.

P.S. I, too, am curiouse.

I couldn't imagine lugging a three frame anything through the Grouse coverts at least not in the stuff I hunt them in I have a nice GHE 16 with 26 inch Damascus barrels on a #1frame and that gets heavy. I much prefer the O frames in 16 & 20 or a OO 28 for my Grouse pursuits.

I was fortunate enough (with the help of one of our very gentlemanly PGCA members) to buy a very nice #2 frame 34" 16 GA.
She is just right for me. Weight/ balance point/ etc.

I have never handled a #3 frame 16 or 20. All of the #3 frame 12's I have handled have been very well balanced and weighted guns for my interest and tastes.

I have handled one #2 frame 32" 20 and she is an awesome piece.
I would love one day to have a #2 frame 20 (32 or 34") and a #3 frame 34" 12.
