Default VH 10 gauge

Here is the most recent new member of the gun room. 230xxx sn range. Not in book or surviving records but appears all original with few minor glitches.

Very nice Mills! What frame size and barrel length? That looks like a great gun for the duck blind, along with some other places. I like it!

I don't have any fluid steel 10s(yet...) That is a nice one for sure.

Mills,

That is nice. If I had that it would satisfy all my needs for a big Parker gun for turkeys. I'm guessing 3.5" chambers? What is the maximum you plan to shoot in it? What is the weight? It will take a bipod to hold it up if a turkey is on the way slowly.

I need to check the chambers and weigh it. It is heavy, but not as heavy as some other 10 gauges I have and certainly not like the 8 gauge.

Great purchase Mills!! I hope to see a PP article featuring your new addition in the future. A real low country cannon. Congratulations

Thanks for the compliments!

Craig, I hope to get it in a PP article, but it might have to wait until duck season. With luck, though, I will get a turkey with it this weekend
