I'll likely buy the book but in the mean time I'm gathering as much info as I can regarding this round. Anyone own a 20 bore paradox? Firearms imports, consignments

The book only provides 22 based on action types (4 hammers and 18 hammerless). I don't know the technical information you are trying to find out. The short chapter has information on weight, action type, top straps (listed as all are short), all barrels 28", ejectors (most had them), sight leave ranges, cartridge loads, etc. Ken

Rumor has it there will be a sequel at some future date that covers other Ball & Shot guns in more detail. I want it yesterday!

Looks like I will be adding another of Mr. Bakers books to my collection. His are some of my favorites. Steve Firearms imports, consignments
