KY Jon, you are right,the gun you are referring to was not cut off by anyone, Bob the Gunsmith or the Remington factory. The guns were made for Cliff Green of Centerville, Maryland and were 24" barrels, all eight of them, from day one. Cliff shot four gun NSSA skeet here in Maryland with those guns for some years. Whatever the last guy paid for those guns, they are probably worth somewhat more than that much now. Tell us more about shooting this gun, one of the pair. Were you a prospective buyer test firing or were you a friend of the original or an early owner?
