That's an incredibe gun! I lust for that more than any Fox I've ever seen.

Now you need to search for a minty, full box of 3" roll crimps to display with it (the Peters box ain't bad, though!).

Here are the shells that should be with it --

In the late 1920s and early 1930s, Peters did offer their progressive burning powder High Velocity shells in longer cases --

I don't find Winchester, Western or Remington offering their Super-Speed, Super-X or Nitro Express 20-gauge loads in longer cases in the 1920s and 30s
