I once had a 22' 20g Trojan that lost 4" of brl from a snow obstruction 'blow out' and it still had .003 and .005 choke constriction. https://sites.google.com/a/damascusknowledge.com/www/home

Never noticed if they stamped them with the barrel lengths when they made them - if so, that would be an easy way to identify a chopped gun at a gun show, etc. Or does that "28" mean something else? Or is that not even a "28" at all? Just trying to learn what not to buy...

Parker, Fox, LC Smith, Ithaca did not indicate brl length on the brls nor action flats. Last edited by revdocdrew; 02/15/07 02:12 PM. https://sites.google.com/a/damascusknowledge.com/www/home

As to records, I believe that the men of the era could make mistakes just like today or orders could be changed. Twice I have looked at guns, one a Parker and the other an Ithaca where the barrels seem to have grown. Both were listed at 26" but and guns had 28" tubes. Mike
