Default what are the odds of finding consecutive NID 10 mags ?

Just noticed that 500472 is on GI and 500471 was recently listed on GB , I thought thats probably not a common occurrence ?

I was looking at 500472 but looks like it would need some extensive stock work . What do you think of this Flues https://www.gunsinternational.com/gu...n_id=101475774


I seen a Turnbull restored Mag 10 sell for $2200 I think it was , which seemed low to me but I had a single trigger does that affect the price that much ?

i'd like to know that the 3" chambers are factory, the flues is not a design for heavy loads.

There were 887 Ithaca NID Magnum-10s produced but scattered in among those were 87 Magnum-12s, so I'm not a good enough math guy to figure the odds of consecutive numbers showing up.

Allegedly there were only five hundred and some NID Super-10s produced.

1936 was the last year the Super-10 was carried in the Ithaca Gun Co. catalogs. The Magnum 12s first appeared in the 1937 Ithaca Gun Co. catalogs. However, I've recorded Magnum 12s as low as 500144 so either they were making them earlier or the magnum frames were getting used way out of order.

500,834 sold today at Morphy's. $2000 plus the juice, way too much in my opinion.

Oh I just seen that https://auctions.morphyauctions.com/...ntoryid=487028

Isnt that about what a roughed up NID 10 mag brings though ?
Although this one sold $2500 but I wonder if it brought less because of the single trigger and the restoration job ? http://www.dismalriverarmory.com/sho...canid10ga.html

Its still listed on their site but it was marked on their GI listing months ago .

I dont know if its because the way sellers take pictures but alot of the NID magnums look to have noticeable cast off and being left handed that would probably be awkward . Then again it just may be angle of the pictures .

I owned a Field Grade Magnum-10 from 1985 to 2001 and never hunted with it, or even fired a 3 1/2 inch Magnum shell with it. Bought it at a little shop along the coast of Maine. Sold it to the Hartmann brothers. Saw it one final time at a Vintage Cup at Orvis Sandanona where it was in Steve Lamboy's Ithaca Classic Doubles tent.

Ive shot some of the 3oz 10 gauge loads from nitro ammo , i think they were a lead/hevi shot duplex . I never patterned them but the guys who have were only getting like 170 hits or so in a 10" circle at 40 yards . Which is pretty bad for that amount of shot . in a 10lb gun I think it came out to about 110 ft lbs of recoil which is more than the 460 wby I had .


I want to try some of the boss bismuth 10 gauge loads , I think they are still in development . They were originally going with a 1 3/4oz load @ 1350 fps but now its a 2 1/16 oz load @ 1300 fps . From what ive read the guys using the boss bismuth really like the shot . They say its more spherical than traditional bismuth .
