These days a good condition unmessed with 10 with good dimensions stands on it's own merits and will command a price close to or equal to a similiar 12. The era of NH and EH GRADE guns in such condition languishing on the dealers rack at a bargain basement price are gone.

Agree 100 %, reason I strayed from Parkers for a Hammerless short 10 is way the gun fit. Ithaca Super 10 I bought a few months ago has a much higher stock than my Hammer Parker 10 about 2 3/4 DAH. . It's probably 40 years newer which accounts for the more modern dim's
