I’d like to have factory original EH 24” and or 26” but they’re less than ten of each length if my memory is correct . 34” is plenty long enough for me so possible 36” 38” and 40” I’ll leave to Mr. Roberts and Mr. Hoover
Craig I recently acquired a 32" steel barreled PH 10 that weighs in just a tick over 9.5 lbs. That's about all the weight I care to be swinging. I am going to step down and let Mr. Hoover handle those heavy weight big bores. He's much better suited for that sort of gun than yours truly.

What length is your first 10 gauge ? That ones a 34 incher correct ?

Mr. Hoover is a fair bit younger than you and I so he's better suited to swing those big brutes

The Grade 2 top lever 32" gun I bought at Hauseman's last june is plenty heavy enough . I can do well enough with it but at 10 1/2 pounds that one will tire you out over a tower shoot or a 100 bird round .

Yes Sir, the CH is a 34" gun at something around 10 3/4 lbs as I recall. I really like that gun but whew it's a load for me. Attached is the one that's really growing on me, I think you will approve. We'll see if I can shoot it.
