Thanks again for the input, is it Mr. Roundsworth (your posting ID may not be your last name)- Quite a photo on you posting. You can see the percussion wave in the water at the firing of one of the big guns. My Dad was Army, Railsplinter, with three campains in Europe including the Bulge. Thank you for perserving our freedom, and your sacrifice to the people of America. Chuck.

Chuck, I hope I word this correctly.....the bore diameter of the older 10B gun is the same as (or close to) later guns. Brass shells were thinner than paper shells, so paper and plastic hulls are tight in the chambers of 'B' guns. Later on, the 10A brass shell was made the same outside diameter as the paper hull, so brass could be interchanged with paper, and our modern plastic, shells.

Thank you Sir! Your explanation on 10B guns makes perfect sense. Thanks very much! Chuck.

Hi Todd-
You Parker guys are very dedicated and convincing! We should send you guys to Washington on these gun and ammo control issues. Yep, I have decided, despite the barrel dents and the low purchase price, to clean this survivior up, repair the broke hammer, look for a firing pin, and call it 'good'. It is the only underlever with this action I have. I have other 10 gauge doubles I can 'modify' for my short gun collection...which I really like. Thanks Todd! Chuck |
