I bought 5 lbs. of Olde Eynsford powder today from a local shop. While I was in the shop I saw several beautiful, original, S/S percussion shotguns that the shop keeper had bought at an estate sale.
Obviously these were safe queens and had been so for a long, long time. One of the guns was marked as a Ten Gauge.
The shop keeper slid a brass bore gauge into the muzzles and it went in past the "10 GA" mark and up to the "FULL G" mark in both barrels.
Would someone here please tell me what "FULL G" means? I found a pretty much similar product for sale on-line except the shop keeper's gauge was only marked on one side and not both.
