Both sets of barrels, 28” and 32”, would be expected to be the same weight by design being a true two-barrel set. The gun should have identical handling characteristics with either set of barrels and that difference in the size of the forends probably fit perfectly into the intended handling characteristics.
Are there any Remington codes on the barrel flats?
That is a beauty! And it seems to have a desirable “trap comb” too.
Nice find Dan!
