If a 'twelvette' is an aluminum receivered double automatic shotgun what would the 'twentyweight' engraved on a 12 ga aluminum receivered double automatic shotgun signify?
I thought twentyweight was for (20) gauge.. I assume you are
talking about Browning shotguns? The "Double Automatic" was a
Browning A5 type of gun that only held two shells. Lighter weight
than a standard 12 gauge,maybe as light as a 20 gauge gun. The
aluminum receiver would be the main way the weight was reduced on
the 12 gauge. I'm sorry I don't have my Browning books handy to
give any more info.
