Another interesting Hammergun
 

Have no stake in gun, other than I would like to own it. GB 617858866 Book shows grade 3 straight grip 10 w/28" barrels. This is a grade 4 with pistol grip and rubber butt! S/N 36136 Any thoughts?

The books have been wrong before. It is obviously a Grade 4 with Bernard barrels certainly heavy enough to be a 10 gauge. Nice candidate for a full resto.

Now that is a well worn grade 4. I wonder how bad the bores are.
Interesting that the butt does not have an ssbp. The stock is original. The butt treatment likely was special order.

I have a grade 3 10 gauge close to the serial number to this one. It also has the same butt treatment. No mention in letter of being a special order.

Nice looking project for someone. My wife is mad at me for buying 4 guns recently, so I am on thin ice in the new gun department

4 for you and none for her? :shock:

Actually, my seller told me to tell her that 2 were for her, so don't be mad. It didn't work.

Hmmm.... Looks like you'll have to buy another new gun for your wife - and quick, if you want things back to normal at the Morrison house - :whistle:

There is a new one coming out later this spring that she wants and I will probably get that for her.

Back to the OP, I hope someone here gets this gun and fixes it up for us to see. I bet those Bernard barrels would really look good if refinished properly.
