Far be it for me to disparage anyone's gun...
I raise this question only after enlarging and closely examining each picture and pose the possibility of the barrels having been re-blacked a long time ago. I raise this question only after comparing the loss of finish to the frame as compared to zero loss of finish to the barrels, and the damage or deterioration of the wood at the tip of the forend.

No offense intended.
