10 ga. frame questions
« on: November 16, 2010, 02:24:43 PM »
I saw the following ad for 10 ga. NEF:

NEW ENGLAND ARMS ,PARDNER MODELSB2,WHISTLING 10GA, 31.2"FILL P CAMO #NL234082

Is that 10 ga. gun actually an SB2 frame or is this a mistake?

The 10ga barrel won't fit on an SB2 rifle frame, the chamber swell of the 10ga is 1.2" in diameter, regular centerfire barrels are 1.1" in diameter. But it will fit an SB2 shotgun frame which is what the 10ga smoothie and 12ga USH come on.  ;)
