What side-by-side manufacture made a 3 inch 16 gauge (in the same era of paper holes, not new manufacture)? Thank you. Last edited by randy; 05/30/23 01:22 PM.

Also, these 16 gauges with 3 inch chambers seem to be fairly rare, I have not found documentation that many were built. It makes me wonder why ammunition manufacturers made the shells for so few guns. Last edited by randy; 05/30/23 02:42 PM.

While the catalogs of our ammunition manufacturers list 2 7/8-inch 16-gauge shells I've yet to see a box. I have recorded 2 7/8-inch 12- and 20-gauge boxes.
