the first sxs I ever bought was a 1929 Francotte 20e pigeon gun, with original vent rib, got it from our late pal Owl-Eye (RIP).
It was a pure target Gun with 32" bbl,big old BT forend..about 81/2lb+..I thought it looked just fine...though I found out it was to heavy for me..but it was in real nice shape, very well put together, &n looked just lovely.
I really wish I could of kept it...but I couldn't shoot it well.
But it sure looked the part for a big Pigeon Gun
