Your barrels are remington steel. The R and the E you are talking about are on the barrels , the normal location. Not on the eatertable if that is what you are thinking. The stock may be original but the checkering looks like it was worked on? Butt plate is not original to gun. I would say the chokes are imp. cyl. and mod. Remington steel barrels will have Remington roll marked on top of both barrels. Terry
