Have never seen a Petrik-stamped sidelock. That being said, it's been some time since I've actually seen one, or even a recent picture--until you posted the Reynolds gun. Nice condition, but very basic. I have trouble believing that a) That gun was made with 3" chambers; or b) anyone would be crazy enough to shoot 3" shells in a 5 1/2# gun. I had a Webley & Scott 720 that was factory 3", same weight category. Even 1 oz loads produced snappy recoil.
