The barrels are now 25 or 26 inches long so 2 or 3 inches were removed. Front sight is nicely in place so it looks like a professional (Parker?) job.
wouldnt some of the barrels HAVE to be removed to go from 12 gauge to 10 gauge?

Thanks for sharing. The gun is a Grade 2, a GH rather than a Grade 1 or PH as stated earlier, (Dam vs. Twist). It would still be interesting to learn of the bore ID and barrel wall thickness after the rechambering to 10ga. Two dollars went a long way back then! I wonder if the gun was severely pitted and rather than overbore a 12 they made it a 10???
