Attached are photos of the current restoration of the 10 gauge C grade hammer gun purchased on Gunbroker. Next to the 10 gauge is a 20 gauge C grade hammer gun that I am going to combine into a vintage two gun case. The PGCA letter states that the 10 gauge was ordered with its existing 28" Bernard barrels. TPS lists only one 10 gauge with this length of Bernard barrels. However, this isn't the gun listed in the Serialization book so there were at least two ordered that way. Next, the gun will be heading north to have the barrels redone and a few screws repaired. Click on the photos to enlarge.

Great guns to begin with Wayne - can't wait to see them when they're finished.

I have a C top lever hammer gun on the 1-frame with 31" 12 ga. Bernard barrels - the only one known to have been made in this exact configuration. It too is a restoration project.

Wayne , that is a beautiful 20 gauge hammer gun, and with Titanic barrels none the less, hope I will get to see it someday in person, again congrats on your purchase of the 10 gauge C grade, hope you find a nice Oak and Leather case for them, I found an old Purdey 2 gun case to fit my 2 guns in Gary
