quote:Yup, but Remington picked up this model, made some changes and called it the SP-10. This is a pretty good shotgun but is finicky in how it is maintained. The nylon bolt buffer is prone to breaking at the worst possible moment so having a few of these on hand would be a good idea. Some of the early malfunctions with this gun was due to short stroking which was easily traced to the gas piston/barrel lug seat, buildup of fouling, and, improper lubrication. A very light application of Break Free seemed to make these less likely to jam in sub zero climates. Can't help you on the choke tube though Briley and/or Hastings could have been a maker of these, or, not. Keep the gun clean and your eye on gas leakage around the gas piston seat and you should be okay... Good luck, Malm | ||

JoeM, I had a Supreme Grade Mag 10 for years until some dirtbag stole my guns. I shot a truckload of Geese and Turkey with it, wow did it shoot a good pattern!!! I shot all kinds of reloads and factory shells and never once had any problem. I have heard horror stories about some of the early guns that jambed really bad,but my gun shot everything I put in it. Ithaca never made a Mag 10 with choke tubes so yours must be an after market job. Check it on the pattern board to make sure it shoots to point of aim. | |||

Boy have you just got ahold of a fine deer killer, I use one that has had the bbl cut back to 26", Pro-ported and have had after market choke tubes installed, with triple-0 and no-4 buck you would not believe the patterns it throws at 50 yards. Keep a check on Numrick for parts and snatch up any bbl you can find, I have been looking for a spare for awhile now and no one wants to part with one,have to check and see if the Remington bbl will work, have been told that some parts will interchange. | |||
