When I started this thread I was afraid(In a good way) that I would have a 10 gauge soon. I did find an early gun(1874) D grade I couldn't live without.

It has 32 inch barrels(which was my preference in a 10) and an English stock which I also prefer. It has 2 7/8 chambers, which I also I wanted and is choked IM/F. I went out of my budget to get it, but it will be my first D grade.

Since it is an early gun it will likely have the square chambers discussed in this thread. I am only going to shoot RST and low pressure equivalent shells(when I start to reload 10 gauge). Hopefully, I won't have any issues with light loads.

I won't have then gun until early April, but I will post pictures as soon as I get it. I already ordered my Parker research letter. I am looking forward to shooting it at the Southern SXS.

Thanks again for all of the suggestions and advice!
