Yes, but it was more "restrictive" as presented to me and/or as I processed it. My understanding was that Brit made pigeon guns of late 1890's on that were over 8# were most likely made for shooting on the continent. I don't claim expertise on this subject, but find it an interesting side note for Brit pigeon guns to be useful as sporting clays guns and/or to generalize their handling properties.

Good thought to contact Adams. He is an expert!!
