Where was this article by Alex Kerr? It sounds like something he would order. I know of three mag tens in our membership, two being rebarrels of earlier guns, one originally made at Remington or Parker Brothers as a mag ten. There must be more out there, because I don't get out much. One other steel barrel rebarrel has what are probably factory 3 1/2" chambers, but do not have the late Remington barrel lug marking. Guns like my recently acquired factory 3 1/2" chambered ten on a #6 frame will probably digest modern 3 1/2" shells, but were not intended for them. I would like to measure the wall thickness at various points along the tube on an original Remington marked mag ten and compare to some of the rebarrels that are not marked 3 1/2".
