DHE 20g Ribs
Here are two 20ga DHE shot guns, one a 24" 1910, the other a 32" 1926. The 32"s can be a bit long for carrying, in my opinion 30"s would be about perfect for open country shooting. The 24"s are great for carrying and heavy brush.
Bill Murphy had commented on the long tapered rib being elegant and I fully agree. The long, thin, tapered barrels with a tapered rib are especially nice in my opinion.
This sequence of photos also shows two original barrel ends, one showing a large un-matted space, the other barely a termination line. The absence of a termination line is indicative of a dreaded cut barrel.
These guns have differences that are kind of fun to notice. As Yogi Berra said, you can observe a lot by just looking. I have a lot to observe and learn.
