Aside from the current day line of pump shotguns: Remington 870, Mossberg 500, Benelli Nova, Winchester Speed Pump, and Browning BPS, I would like to dwell further into the class pump shotguns...
I know of the Winchester Model 12 and 1897, Ithaca Model 37, Remington Model 17 and 31.
There are other ones out there like the Stevens 77E etc., High Standard, Smith and Wesson etc.
I was hoping to start a discussion of pump guns of the past and non mainstream types as there isn't a whole lot of information on google.
I'm interested in the craftsmanship and design details of the older guns and how they were adopted and refined into today's current guns. I'd like to hear about the steel machining process and tight tolerances etc.
Any info would be appreciated.
