I have a Remington Model 1889 10 gauge SxS that has the firing pin retaining screws entering the receiver at the 6 o'clock position. All the photos I have seen of the 1889 receiver show the retaining screws entering the receiver from the 3 or 9 o'clock direction (right and left barrels)! What variant do I have?
