Default My new 10 Bore - Remington 1894 B grade

Just got this today and I am more than pleased . 8 3/4 pounds, 32" F/F Remington 1894 B Grade 10 gauge. Extractor gun. Interesting that Remington stamped the pattern number on the barrel lug as I understand it. Shot with 1 1/4 ounce 8 it shot 334/511 and 368/511. Looks to be all original and it fits me perfect (but I don't know why) 14 1/8 LOP, 1 3/4" DAC and 3" DAH.

Looking at the forend iron it looks to me like it was designed to have ejectors and I wonder if they were all built that way. According to the Blue Book extractor guns (Rem 1894's) bring a 15% premium over ejectors (scratching head).

From the information I can find a B grade Rem 1894 in 10 Bore is just slightly less rare then hens teeth.
