I get as excited about buying one of these old war horse guns as I do high condition high grade guns.

Glad someone here picked that one up , I had thought of bidding on it but I new a Parker collector wasnt going to let a #4 frame 10 ga slip by that easily haha . Hope to hear how the bores turn out , they didnt really give much description on them . Ive found a similar one to that but in higher condition however it probably cost x5 as much also . I have seen probably more #2 frame 10 gauges than #4s . Any idea on the barrel thickness at the breech ? They look pretty beefy .
