Out of that list the EH 10’s without a doubt ! And I missed one I wanted today on Morphys auction ! They had a circa 1889 EH 10 28” that letters as a 28” . Luckily I already had one , I was thinking they were calling me Friday got my days mixed up and was driving to pickup a load of powder for my stash .

About 4 years ago a gentleman brought a GH 12ga Damascus 30" to my club. He was asking about having the stock refinished and what it would cost. I informed him it would depend on who you sent it to. It could be reasonable or it could be quite costly. I offered to try to clean it up for him as most of the stock and barrels were black like the gun was in a place where coal dust could accumulate. I took it home and cleaned it and it came out quite good, like it wasn't used much at all. When I returned it to him he asked how long I worked on it and I said about 5 or 6 hours. I said you should enjoy shooting it and he said someone told him the gun was only worth $900 to $1,000. He then asked if I could give him $400.00 I could keep the gun. Needless to say I could not get the money to him fast enough. I have been enjoying the gun ever since. Very good Damascus pattern and only a couple of very small marks on the stock.

Best buy so far is probably My 1882 grade 2 transition 10 gauge, I was oblivious to the fact it didnt have a dolls head and was a transition gun until somewhere here mentioned it to me haha. I got it for substantially less than what I see asking prices for grade 2 TA 10 gauges on GB or GI. Barrels are decent lockups tight and no play in the hammers really the biggest flaw with it is probably the worn checkering but I really enjoy it plus now its my oldest brothers favorite shotgun to shoot.
Your #2 was going to be my pick I see alot of what I assume are reasonably priced DH 12s for sale at least compared to the 10 gauges I like to look at. |

"Best buy" has nothing to do with what the market says a gun is worth. It has everything to do with how you feel about what you have compared with what you paid for it.
My best buy is my DHE Parker 16/20 two barrel set, with 32" barrels in both gauges. |
