Default 10 ga PH on a #6 frame ?

I was trying to find what the larger frame 10 ga Parkers sell for compared to the 8 gauges . The #5 and #6 frame 10 gauges and whenever I try to search specifically by frame size its pulls up the grade numbers instead .
Anyhow I seen this PH 10 ga sold at auction with two other guns .
The bottom one is a 12 ga Parker PH according to the listing . There were no weights listed but the 10 ga PH looks massive Im wondering if it was a #6 frame . The lot sold for 1800$ , I would think a #6 frame 10 ga would be worth alot more than that even in its condition ?

That is a 6 frame. likely.

Those guns have a certain proportion to them that is unmistakable.

Parkers didnt make a hammerless #5 frame did they ?
Do we know if the 10 gauges built on a #6 frame were produced more than the 8 gauges ? If I cant get a 8 gauge in a few months I thought of tracking down a #5 or #6 10 gauge if I could find one in the ideal price range . I would have thought a #6 frame PH 10 gauge alone would have sold for what the lot of 3 did . I wouldnt mind getting one with some condition issues as longs as the bores are safe .

I have not seen a 5 frame hammerless, but they likely exist.

Records are not tabulated and tracked by frame size, so there is
No way of knowing how many of what were built on what frame sizes.

It’s my understanding that there’s a 6 frame hammerless 10 gauge for sale in the next Poulin’s auction . But I suspect this one will bring over 4G’s and quite possibly 5G’s .

Its probably in a bit better condition than the that sold for 1800$
Ive found some #6 frame 8 gauge hammer guns in that price range .(5k)
They have some condition issues however that im not sure if they are worth the asking price . One is missing 4" off the barrels and its a low grade lifter .
The other one appears to need some extensive repairs done to the wrist area and a few other things .

There was a hammerless #6 10 ga that sold at a past auction for 7,500$ it was a N grade or wouldnt that be a NH grade since it was hammerless .

I plan on buying a PGCA membership and asking in the for sale section before I hastily buy from anywhere .

That is good since your number of posts allowed as a non-member is rapidly approaching.

Some early #6 frame tens were originally eights. They were rebarreled when eight gauges were outlawed for migratory birds. What auction was the $1800 #6 frame sold? With a serial number, we can tell you if it was originally an eight or a ten. My #6 frame ten was rebarreled in fluid steel, was originally an eight. I overpaid substantially for that gun, but "Just had to have it." It has a very interesting history as the gamegetter for a Nebraska family who lived off the land from pioneer days.
