New Hammer Gun!

I finished cleaning the 'old girl' up and tried a few of my 1 ounce handloads. Yep, she's a 'keeper' alright! It balances right at the hinge and does not seem muzzle heavy like my other tens. A check will be in the mail for a letter tomorrow! Cheers, everyone.

I won't comment on the great #3 frame gun that came out of Puglisi's. However, I will give you the wall thickness figures on the #3 frame hammer ten I just got in the mail from an internet purchase. There were some few places that showed measurements of .050, but they were way up front. The bores in the first half did not show any place under .060. Now I know why many Damascus barrel British ten bores pass nitro proof with 3 1/2" shells.

My PGCA letter states that my gun was ordered by Powell and Clement, of Cincinnati, on 5 FEB 1886 and shipped on 15 JUN 1886. The 30 inch Laminated Steel Barrels were choked F and F. The gun weighed 9 pounds 3 ounces. Price was $70.00. All specs still match, for which I am pleased! It is nice to have a gun that isn't all goobered up. Cheers!
