Someone on here recently let a top lever hammer Grade 2 on a #4 frame go on GB . I bid but not quite enough , now I'm wishing I'd bid more

Craig, I don't need any more heavy tens, but I would like to look at the GB gun. What was the item number?

Only issue I had with it was needing the hammer screws . And of course my recently acquired Jewish outlook on spending

Maybe I outta sell 90% of my guns bank most of the money and get a new set of Callaway clubs and start chasing the little white ball again LOL's !

My Short Tens are utilitarian. From top to bottom, a 30" 8 3/4 lb Remington 1894 AE, a Lefever 30" 9.5 lb G grade, and a 32" 10 lb 5 oz, Parker NH. All with modern dimensions. Each has their place, the Parker is the most comfortable with heavy loads, the Remington is the nicest to carry around and is the tightest shooting of the three guns at 93%.

The 2 7/8" 10ga is fun to shoot, they will break clays and kill birds at very long range. If you shoot them enough you will learn why the 10ga was banned from competition shooting. Factory loads are a bit cost prohibitive but reloading is easy once you learn to trim hulls and use a filler wad inside the shot cup.

Short Ten = Big Fun

Pete reminded me that I had forgotten to mention my seven or eight ten gauge Lefevers, a collection I started before I entered high school. I also have an 1889 Remington that is so minty that I am afraid to show it at a gun show for fear of being accused of displaying a refinished gun. It isn't. It has steel barrels, 30", is about mint. Anyone interested? I really love the tens.

I also have the 10 gauge sickness. Current lineup includes 5 LC Smith's, a Q-3 Syracuse gun, a Ideal 30", a 30" Pigeon, a 30" No. 3 and another No. 3 30". One Parker a #6 frame 36" D grade top lever hammer gun. I reload both target loads and bismuth hunting loads.

I am glad I don't suffer from that affliction.
