18.5" Factory Barrels is almost certainly a misrepresentation.
These were sold as bird guns, and had normal length barrels. This one was choked IC/M as delivered.
American Imports models date from the 70's. I have a 410, and it's been a reliable gun.
As far as how you did, if you need a SASS gun this is probably a good choice. It would bring 2x or better with uncut barrels.

Uggie 30 has a "third" top fastener in the breech wall between barrels, at least the ones imported by Excel, Gardner, Mass. did. Model 221 is a model 30 with a few leafy bits on the fences. Most of the 30s and 221s I see are SG, SFE; barrels are 27 and a bit or 29 and a bit. Bought a 221 three yrs. ago $400. Sold in spring 700.

If you have a use for a 18" gun, you did good.
Watch that you don't blow the brim of your hat off.

It's eqivalent to Modelo 30. My 3"mag has 30" tubes choked 1/4-full. The barrel weight is 1560grams and it's proofed to 1200Bar. I only fired about 300 cartridges from mine and so far had zero problems.

Bet it has no choke left.
An ok buy if its working or keeps working, otherwise you will be making repairs/spending money,

Hi Will...Price is good I'd say.Though I don't know much about Spanish. ShotGun J,s....It does say "Coach Gun", & after marking the pics stock length on a bit of paper & matching it to the bbls..the bbls look about 4 inches longer than the stock....assuming a 14/14.5" I'd say there as stated. Did you get it yet will? At least you have half a double rifle :). Post how she shooots etc, eh?? Shoot in good health cheers mate Franc
