The fence looks like some others I have seen from the era. Thought it looked like my C 10 but it is a little different

I know a somewhat sprawled out family of Shacklefords that live in SE AR , SW MS and NE LA . I’d be curiouse to find out if there was any relation .

You can order a research letter on it if you know the serial number.

I’ve done it a few times.

I was wondering too if it was perhaps a #4 frame seems the few 4 frames I have seen were higher grade 10 gauges in the 10+lb range. Ideally a 4 frame 10lb gun should be balanced closer to center than a 3 frame. Wonder if they ever thought of just adding a counter balance in the stock of a heavy barreled 3 frame to get a similar result.
