Not a problem sir ! Anymore squirrels and deer for me are more a matter of I’d like to honestly say I’ve taken one with this that or the other . It’s kind of a thing of , if you have why not use it Number one on my list now is to kill a deer with the 50 cal air rifle . Which in reality with the .495” lead roundball going about 850 FPS is the same as a weak 50 cal ML !

George on a kinda side note , I have a Winchester 1890 that only shoots 22 Shorts my grandfather and his brother purchased new in the 20’s . He gave it to me for my HS graduation . Anyway that was all he ever used to kill squirrels and he in my grandmother ate a lot of squirrels when they were first married back in the 30’s .

Craig my exact gun of choice.

KEEPER! Take it out and shoot it. The 10 grows on you.

According to TPS on page 265 the year they changed from NH to PH was 1905 and they were not listed in the 1907 catalog. And then the year that this gun was made, 1917, they dropped the twist steel barrels and only offered them in Parker Steel (fluid steel) barrels after that, until they dropped the PH all together in 1927. If we knew how long the barrels were we could see, a little better, as to how rare this gun might be. 30" & 32" were the vast majority of the guns.
As the song says: You don't know what you've got TELL IT'S GONE.

I got hung up on the EH/GH 10’s and have acquired 28 , 30 , 32 and 34 inch . Supposedly they made less than 20 of the 34” guns and less than 70 of the 28” ones . I’d like to have factory original EH 24” and or 26” but they’re less than ten of each length if my memory is correct . 34” is plenty long enough for me so possible 36” 38” and 40” I’ll leave to Mr. Roberts and Mr. Hoover

I've got a 28" EH but it became 28" the wrong way.
