I may be wrong, but ten pound barrels are about the heaviest I have seen. It should have 36" barrels.

Casey, could you tell us the frame size.... the number is on the center lug to the right in your 2nd picture.
Great gun and piece of family history. Looks like a 7 Bob |

Great gun! What makes it extra special is the story and history behind it.. You can never put a price tag on that...

The lug has a '7' stamped on it. The check hook lug has some different machine work done to it. My 1886 vintage 3 frame 10 gauge is not like that. Is it unique?

36 and 3/16 inches to be exact, and they are very heavy. I remember when I was just a kid I was not able to hold the gun to my shoulder and aim it.
