Modern pigeon guns Ive seen are O/U. Perazzi for us PO folk, and rich people like Fabbri shotguns. A 32 Perazzi with tight chokes and relatively light barrels makes a pretty awesome live bird gun, imho. In terms of the old guns, they were heavier than the game guns and many had a raised rib, sometimes hand-filed. I have a 20 ga #2 Holland with a raised rib; Im pretty sure its an old pigeon gun. Its a heavy gun, built like a tank. If you use your imagination, you would almost say it was a 20 built on a 12 ha frame. It has no side clips, but it does have a 3rd bite, proofed for 2 3/4 shells and stamped LC.

Socialism is almost the worst.
