Here are two quickie pictures of a gun you won't see every day, one of two made in that configuration. Bottom gun in picture comparing 30,32 and 34" bbls.

That's a cannon alright. What year was it made that it vame with Damascus barrels?

Wow! Very nice!

This is a very very special gun! I was able to shoulder and swing it this weekend. great balance. Does not feel barrel heavy at all! Sweet spot gun! Used not abused!

Somewhere there are mallards who have no idea whats coming! I cant wait to see it!

Hopefully video forthcoming in early December!

Very nice ! I received a Grade 0 top lever 10 gauge 34” yesterday by no means in the same league with that CH but a 34 inches none the less . I’ve got 10’s now that left the factory at (and are still) 28” , 30” , 32” and 34” . I most certainly wouldn’t turn down an EH with 34 , 36 or 38 inch barrels but I truely want EH’s with factory original 24 and 26 inch barrels . :bowdown:

And as witnessed last Sunday, Craig shoots it very well.

Yeah, mallards beware!

If you don’t mind saying what’s the struck weight on the barrels ? The reason I ask , that GH 10 gauge 34” that was for sale here was listed at a pound less and the struck weight on those barrels shows 6/1 .

6/13

Well 12 ounces would account pretty well for a pound difference in the two guns :cool:
