No mention of choke measurements, I notice. That would be a better indicator of cut barrels than barrel separation. Fox is known for barrel separation on factory original guns. In fact, I have seen Fox order cards for less than 30" guns with rather open chokes that specify "Cut longer barrels to make this gun.". I have examined the guns described on these order cards and they had space between barrels at the muzzle. Conversely, I own Parkers that have been cut four inches that have "joined" muzzles. A Callahan letter would be the next step after measuring the choke dimensions.
