Craig,
56568 is the gun you pictured. It belonged to Austin Hogan. It now resides in my gun safe.

I looked at a DH 10 gauge yesterday at Rock Island. It had three dogs (one on the floor plate). The setter on the side was "turned." I have one (a 12) from a year later than the Rock Island DH and it also has three dogs, but not the turned setter on the side.

Here's the floor plate from my 12.

Yes he made the post with those pics in 2010 I believe it was . Is it a 10 or a 12 ?

That happens to be the gun that got me curiouse. I already had an 1889 DH 10 that I’d gotten on Gunbroker that has really worn engraving . But the one you Mention is a little earlier serial number wise . I only think there was one DH 10 (56,235) at Rock Island and if that’s true that gun is headed to Virginia

I liked that DH at RIAC, it had some nice barrels and that unique engraving...and it was a 10! Congratulations.

I just sent off for a letter on this one !

I'm becoming quite interested to get the gun here and try and compare the engraving of this one with my DH 3 frame 10 . May be a skoosh difficult as the engraving on the 3 frame is worn a good bit . But we will see

The RIA 1889 DH 10 arrived today . Old gun actually looks better then was expecting . Most likely the barrels on this one will get a once over .
