Short 10 on the barrens of Newfoundland
 

Chris Dawe just sent me this pic as I am at work......nice guy.

Thanks buddy ,just got out and i'm cooking the birds and enjoying a cold beer...the gun is the lightweight 10 I mentioned a while back,handloads were 1 3/8 # 4 bismuth ,overkill i know but given the snipe we encounter ( migratory classed) and due to our laws requiring all or no non toxic on your person when hunting the barrens ,it was all I had ...and after a couple years restoration I just couldn't wait to use it ,shes a killer - three shots and two birds ...I have to admit I did have to let them get out there before I pulled the trigger ,must be the first birds this gun has taken in a lifetime ,many thanks to Jim D for putting me onto this old gun .

good shooting with the short ten and its a fine looking gun too...how much does your lite weight gun weigh and whats the barrel lentgh on this gun....charlie

Hi Charlie,the barrels are 28" and believe it or not the gun is on the light side of 7 1/4 lbs

chris that is some lite 10 ga i believe bill murphy has one about the weight of yours...most 12 ga are that heavy..i bet she points and shoots like a dream...you mite ought to take this gun to arizonia....charlie

Is this the same gun I had asked about points of constriction ?

Aww man Craig ,I completely forgot !! i'm so sorry ...Ill try and get on it this week end .

Yes its the same gun
