Ted: Not sure which one you're looking at, the big screwdriver is for the bolt through the stock. Not pretty but effective. I do have a hollow-ground set that I use for my guns. I don't like buggered screws either.
Boats: The Model 10 is the only non-Browning pump shotgun that had moderate commercial success from that era. It was a John D. Pederson design that had to work-around all of the Browning pump-gun patents that existed at that time. It has nice lines but....like many of Pederson's designs, it is a Rube Goldberg-like device with flippers and strikers (as opposed to shell-lifters and firing pins) and nobody is left alive that can fix it if it breaks. As mentioned above, parts for it simply don't exist. I've been eyeing one for the past couple of years that I could get for nearly nothing. The take-down is neat and I like the geometry of the gun, but there are simply many other options out there that will serve you better.
