Something seems off about this grade 5 10 ga

Maybe Mills can bring this one back...or Millton.

Whenever I think of doing a project and start looking at the $$$ I say to myself eh I could buy another 8 gauge for that. Im kind of a odd one out as I prefer the minimal engraving on the grade 1s and 0s although the sculpted bolsters on the higher grade guns are beautiful.

Milton, did you see the photos I took and posted for you and Charlie? Check the "Other Fine Doubles" section for some 8s and 4s...and even bigger guns.

I havnt looked yet, I have been drooling over all the big bores Josh keeps listing

So far in I guess about the past 10 years I have seen 2 short 10 gauges that have been punched out to 3.5" magnum, barrel integrity aside looking at how petite my 3 frame is in the wrist I couldnt see firing a 3.5" load through it even if it had the chambers. I do recall one Parker 3 frame 10 ga magnum I seen and the stock had been greatly beefed up not sure if that was a factory gun or a personal project.
