It was my understanding that the majority of 28" barrels in 20 and 28 gauge were choked modified and full. When I worked at Jaegers I ordered several 28" Q1 and Q2 barreled 28ga guns for customers. I was told at that time that there was one run of 50 guns choked that way. I know of no way to verify that number. The main point is that a few do exist.

My opinion is still that 28 gauge 28" guns are hard to find because they are locked up in collections by owners that don't want to let them go. 20s in that configuration, scarce for the same reason.

Tom, did you measure both sets of barrels for their constrictions in thousandths?

There are a few, a very few, Repros on Gunsinternational right now that are among the very scarce long barrel, double trigger guns that we covet. I ran through the selection today and I found some that I would buy.

In 1987 I special ordered my 20gauge 2 barrel set directly from Skeuse and asked for special choking of the 28" barrel of IC/Lt. Full, and it is duly marked on the flats in the same stamp font as original.

I am looking at 3 NSFL repros now and all have 2 sets of 28 inch barrels.
