I've never seen one. I will keep that in mind but I don't think there are many of them. Thanks.

I have one of the NID 10's and like it a lot. I hand load bismuth 2's and have not failed to kill geese and cranes at stupid long ranges.
This NID had been to California before the 10 ga. ban and somebody messed with the chokes. Briley back/over bored the bores to match about, .80 if I remember correctly and made choke tubes. I guess the overbore makes it a 9 1/2 ga., maybe.

Sorry for the delay in comeback.Unfortunately my picture hosting sight has crapped out on me so I can't ad any pics until I find another sight.Of all the various magnum 10 doubles out there the AYA's seem to be the lightest at around nine lbs and one of mine has digested heavy factory loads for about 15 years and is still rock solid and the top lever right of center.Some of the other makers can be up to 11 lbs which is overkill and cumbersome.I believe the AYA 10 was built to specs provided by Elmer Keith.

I hadn't heard that Keith consulted on the AyA 10 gauge. Interesting.

I was offered a Neumann 10 gauge tonight. I can't seem to warm up to them.

I went by Cabelas today and handled their Neumann 10 gauge. It was ok but not to my taste. Thanks for the heads up on it.

The gun in the pic weighs 9 1/4 lbs with 32" barrels.Built in the seventies.I found it in as new,possibly unfired condition,a couple years ago at a local gun show.Used it last week to lower four snow geese from 45-50 yards.Have lengthened the forcing cones and opened chokes to 25 and 30 thou to better digest heavy steel loads.
