I found the gun, and someone got a deal of a lifetime most likely. The sad thing is that someone got way less than $750 when they sold or traded it to the Cabela's store.

So, it was built with C and IC chokes? Is that not a bit odd for a 30 incher? Just asking 'cause I'm not as up on originality as many of you guys, and don't have access to the book(s).

My 1886 Quality D 10 Gauge Lifter 32” two barrel set was ordered as follows:
Damascus choked “ to shoot close”.
The accompanying Laminated barrel set was “requested to be bored Cylinder”.
The chokes for the Damascus barrels were patterned “RH 200 pellets and LH 200 pellets of size 8 shot in a 24” circle at 45 yards.
The Laminated Steel barrels were documented at RH 125 pellets and LH 125 pellets in a 24”circle at 45 yards”.
