Welcome to the forums! I for one would love to see pictures of your 10ga. Quite a few members here have and shoot hammer guns. If you end up needing parts I’m sure some forum members can point you in the right direction. You didn’t mention the 2nd gun you inherited, what might it be?

It's an 1892 12ga GHE with 26" Damascus and double ivory sights. It was Pop's favorite squeeze and he always kept it well.
I've begun the process of redoing the wood and brightening up the metal.

I'm in contact with Brian Dudley and he already told me he has the parts I need to repair the right hammer on the 10ga.
The barrels look pretty decent. I can see some slight corrosion and will wire brush them today.

I discovered RST Shells and am considering a couple boxes of 10ga 2 5/8" shells to try this old man out when I'm done. They're a little steep in price though [$2.10 ea.]
Are there any other sources of shells for vintage shotguns?
