When I bought a relative early 12ga. Lifter(#3492) I thought the same thing on the thickness of the breach/chamber walls. Here is that thread which has some good pictures: http://parkerguns.org/forums/showthread.php?t=20301

The early guns(like all Parkers) are a lot of fun!

Theres a couple #2 frame 10 gauges on gunbroker it looks like no one is interested in . Ive always prefered heavier guns myself , I seen a 7lb 10 ga double the other day for sale but cant remember what brand it was .
