The 5 frames are pretty rare with any type of barrel.
I had a Laminated steel 34" gun for awhile. As you can see by the description below it had open chokes and was a nice sporting clays gun. This one is the only one listed in the book as a lifter grade 2. I sold it a few years ago and I think it is up to Traverse City on a fireplace mantle.

Parker Brothers, Grade 2 Hammer Lifter, 10 gauge, mfg 1879, 34” Laminated Steel bbls, IC/IC, Pistol (ball) grip, 3” chambers, Steel butt plate, splinter forearm, double trigger, barrels stamped 6^7, #3 frame, LOP 14 ½”, DAC 2 1/8”, DAH 3”, 10 lbs 8oz
