Not many ever get a chance to buy a gun like that. They only made 34 AH top lever hammer guns.

Not an AH, but a wonderful gun. An AH would be a hammerless gun. Your new gun, I hope, needs a PGCA letter.

Yeah , I shouldn't say it but I'd find room in my not modest 10 gauge accumulation for that one and I already have a pair of 4 frames an 0 grade and a Grade 3 .

#4 frame higher grade guns were often ordered by competitive shooters to maximize the weight to just come under the 11 pound limit for pigeon guns used in important competitions. Consequently, these "just under 11 pound" guns were often ordered by competitors whose names are recognized by those who study such things. When you get your letter, post that information here for assistance.
