My 1881 10 ga. is almost identical to it....except mine is a Triplex Lever Grip instead of just a dolls head and has lots of choke. My gun is also a pound heavier than that gun.


My 1874-75 Premier 10ga is nearly identical to the gun Joe linked us to. Mine has some obvious issues but it is currently at the 'smith having them addressed.

Here are alternating pics of my gun and Cabela's gun. Red background is the Cabela's gun. Apologies for the poor quality of my pics. I snapped them as I was packing the gun up to go to the 'smith.
