Don't think you want 10 inch barrels

I'm most likely wrong but I think their estimations on worth for all three 40" guns are a good bit high . In the past I'd thought they made the estimations low but not on those three .

I must have missed the 40" 12 gauge. Milton, I think my 30" DH 8 gauge is in perfect proportion. At 10 pounds, I can still lift it.

I think it probably has alot to do with barrel profile as well, My 6 frame 10 gauge barrels taper down to the muzzle about the same as my 3 frame so they have quite a bit of sweep to them I think makes them look short.
