I thought "Ol Betsy" was a rifle, never heard of Dan'l using a shotgun. "WHO" in their right mind would want 42" bbls on a 16ga double.

Piper, don't you know - a longer barrel shoots farther.

Paul; You're right of course, that 42" bbl should Reach Out about a Foot farther than a 30" one.

I think this gun was used to win a Gold Medal in the 1916 Olympics... pole vault competition.
Voting for anti-gun Democrats is dumber than giving treats to a dog that shits on a Persian Rug

I think it's the same gun Elmer Fudd used and Bugs Bunney tied the barrels in a knot. 
Practice safe eating. Always use a condiment.
