Default is something off with this

I am looking at this reproduction, it is a two barrel set 20ga. it looks as though someone finished it in grey or silver. the barrels are blued 26/28"

what looks off is the bolt in the hinge area. I thought the screwdriver head was on the left side.

The hinge pin is in backwards.

The metal was just left white after engraving.

Were some repeos offered “in the white” and if so could this gun have starred off as one of those?

Only a small percentage of the A1S Repros were offered in the white.

Just so I know in the future, were the in-the white specials offered in two barrel sets?

Yes, in most, if not all, gauges and configurations. Some single barrel sets and a few 3-bbl. sets as well.
