i got a AEgrade remington that pete lester found for me..it has steel barrels 30 inch long

If it has steel barrels it is not an AE-Grade. An AE-Grade has two-stripe Damascus barrels. It would be either an AER- or AEO-Grade, and from the pictures it is an AER-Grade. Something quite unusual with that extra inch and a half of top tang?!? Normal top tang about this long --
I believe that is the first 10-gauge I've ever seen on the later style action. Great find!! Congrats!!
The recoil pad looks like a late Fray-Mershon or an early Pachmayr but with that fowl on the face I suspect it was a proprietary made for Sears, Montgomery Ward, Western Auto, etc.
