One thing about pigeon guns is that for the most part they've got near modern dimensions. Pigeon shooters liked a high stock whereas so many early American hammerless guns are really low. That's part of what drives the price in my mind, that and the nostalgia of old time pigeon shooting of course.

P.S. Woodpigeon shooting is a lot of fun I will agree. I've been out for them twice in my trips across the water and enjoyed it both time. Never been there on a "big" day but we've had good shooting both times over decoys.
