I have an NH 10 as well just like the EH/GH more . Over the last six months I picked up three DH 10’s and I honestly like the engraving on the EH/GH more then the DH .

There was about 5 or 6 hammerless 10 ga Parkers on gunbroker about 2 weeks ago but seems the seller removed all of his listings . I think one of them was a EH , one was 6k so about twice as much as his other hammerless ones cant remember the grade though .

Was the PH the most common 10 ga hammerless ? I see those for sale more than any other grade . Im not familiar with all the grades yet , im planning to buy a G grade lifter but I like the PH 10s as well , im a minimalist kind of guy .

Morphy's cashed my check a week ago but they have not shipped the gun.In the amazon world waiting 7 to 14 days for a gun is a killer.

You can fondle that new CH Bernard in the interim while you are waiting. Under those circumstances I am having a hard time finding pity for you in this case brother

So I received 31406. Barrels are pitted as advertised about the same as my other D #6 frame (bad but not the worst I have seen!!!) Measurements are right barrel bore .807, wall at 9" .079, min wall .041, choke .040: left bore .822, wall at 9" .079, min wall .041, choke .051.
It needs a new bolt and to be put on face at some point it is shootable as is but I want it right. The right hammer is loose but I don't have a screw driver bit thin enough to tighten, it may need some welding work. The firing pin springs are broken. I intend to give it a good cleaning and add some finish to the wood that's about it. Cool old ducker, I can't imagine how many ducks this gun has killed but I do intend to extend it's long life in the marsh.
So to complete my collection of old tired duck guns, I would like to add a 5 frame D 10 gauge, they seem to weight around 12lbs.

Have you got a 3 frame grade 3 top lever 10 already ?

Bottom gun is 31406, top gun is my #6 frame 10, not a great picture.
Craig I'm not interested in a 3 frame D just because they are common. My real interest is in the big guns built on frames larger than standard.

Craig, most of these guns do not have firing pin springs. The pins float. That pin is likely just seized up with gunk.

OK thanks Brian I did not realize that. A little Hoppies and they are good now. I put a .003 shim in the hinge and the gun is good to go until I get it put back on face correctly.

Now that picture is enlightening to say the least ! I had thought my 0 grade 4 frame was a bit cumbersome but I can just imagine getting that six frame going after a goose or duck or clay target or whatever
