Wow...

When I first saw it I thought it was a police positive with a Stevens favorite barrel.

That's and odd one for sure!

I bet it is fun to sit in a car...

with that on your belt. Would be interesting to do a chrono test to see if there is any velocity advantage, or loss, from such a barrel length.

I like longer barrels but even that is to much for me,

with long barrels to take small birds for an ornithological collection. I suppose the reason could be as strange or as normal as the person who did or commissioned the work.

That old dog has been circulating around forever. Powell owned it for awhile many years ago when it was making the rounds in Texas. I don't think he ever fired it.

I don't see it fitting in a Flat Rate USPS box easily.

A little bit of history....neat!
