Pete, great job reading those markings. The only ones I can make out are the MOD and FULL. Nice gun. Anyone know the serial number for our list of half frames? At $18,995, Tony will have it for a while.

Thanks Bill but my eyes are not once they once were. I can't make out what is stamped on each barrel just ahead of the flats. Look to be three characters in an oval. I wonder if it is the REP inside an oval which I have seen on 870's and 1100's. Remington proof mark? There are better pictures here:

Forrest, I've just acquired a 12 g 3 frame DH with 32" barrels. Full and full, of course. Has the weight to make me swing the thing. I'm learning how to use this heavy weight to shoot clays! wish me luck. David

David,

I'd like to find one to deer hunt with, one's for sale on one of the online sites, but its at an appropriate premium. Someday I might pick up a pinned stock 2 frame for cheap for the use, lots of those out there. First though to run down a 20 bore field grade, lots of the same ones from the same dealers at the same prices. Maybe I'll insult them with another offer soon.

I have a DelGrego restored 3 frame 12ga VH with 32" bbls that weighs 9 pounds. Although not as heavy as most 10 bores it is not a gun I would want to be walking around the woods with looking for deer or anything else unless I was looking to stretch out one arm longer than the other

For me 8 pounds and up makes a for a gun to lay across one's lap waiting for the game to come to you.
