Oh come on, that just doesn't make any sense. Full choke double guns were made for market hunters to shoot game sitting. *rolls eyes*
Market hunting was a profession but very few people actually did it. If every old full choke shotgun had been used by a market hunter then there would be absolutely no game left today because it would have been wiped from the face of the earth.
Full choke guns were the fashion of the day, it's just that simple. It continued well into more modern times. Just think how few open choke Model 12 pumps or Browning A5 automatics you see. They're all 28 and 30 full just like most of the old doubles.
