After reading the description of the gun, and looking at his pictures, I also believe they were cut. Take a look at the pics of my Remington made Parker VH 28ga.

Mine has slight differences, such as the Parker overload stamp on the barrel flats and the top lever is engraved a bit different from ed's. Take a look at the muzzle on mine, for sure not milled down and for sure not cut tubes. Mine has 26" tubes, sure hope the book agrees
