Default RE: BP shotguns?

Traditions first 12 gauge inline shotgun was based on their Trapper
plunger bolt action rifle and was threaded for Mossberg 500 choke
tubes. It has a 24 inch barrel and takes #11 caps. This particular
shotgun is outfitted with a prototype checkered wood stock that
was a nearduplicate of their plasticTrapper stock. The plastic
shotgunstock wasn't ready in timefor a picture of this new model
to appear on the cover of that year's Traditions catalog, so they
carved an exact wooden prototype for the coverphoto. I was
fortunate to buy thegunat the factory storeasa leftover. It has
verysharp checkering, and I installed an extended choke tube for
easier removal during loading. It's drilled and tapped forscope
mounting and has an orange fiber optic bead sight.
