first of all I've never heard of Winchester's involvement in 32 gauge shotguns in any way so I'm just referring to the "32 gauge" & the ones i currently own & shoot.

I'm looking for more info too. I now own 2 of these 32 gauges, an American arms 32 GA o/u & a tecni-mec, a rizzini co. Made in Italy 32 GA o/u. Having owned the tecni-mec since 1990, it has become my favorite dove, quail & chukkar gun as well as for younger pheasant.

I have just commissioned the main rizzini company in Italy to custom build a set of 32 GA o/u barrels to fit my existing rizzini "small gauges combo" set of 28 & .410 GA barrels on a 28 GA frame & should have it mid 2012.

The only ammo maker i know of is fiocchi who also makes 24 gauge shells. #6 & #8 shot can be had in a 2 1/2" shell with 1/2 oz of shot.

Even though this almost exactly a 2 1/2" .410 load for some reason i can shoot the 32 much better than a .410 or 28, even equalling many of the 20 GA scores i have shot as have others who have used it.

That's all i know for now...about the 32 GA shotgun!

What caliber is an American Gun Company double barrel shotgun with a number 5511 on all parts smaller than 20 gauge bigger than 20 gauge and where can you get parts for it?

Parts for an American Gun Company shotgun will only be found as part of another shotgun. Haunt the local gunshows for one that is being parted-out. As for the gauge (not caliber), did you mean "bigger than a 410"? There have been 24, 28, and 32 gauge shotguns made. Of these, only the 28 is still available in the US, but I believe 32 gauge shells may still be commercially loaded in Europe.
