Default Cut barrels???

What is the opinion on these barrels. Have they been cut?

Looks like they've been cut quite abit. Barrels not touching at the end & no free space at end of the top rib.

What do they measure and what's the serial number by looking at what you show they would be cut but with the rest of the details could change things

Thanks guys, I thought they were. Our old friend Ed Good has surfaced on GI with this "rare 1 frame Parker 12 gauge" with 28" barrels choked mod/full. Wonder how he got those measurements ? And all for just shy of $5K.

Well, the ad does mention that this shotgun is reblued and refinished. No need to even look further, irrespective of cut barrels, or not.

I would NEVER buy ANYTHING from that guy. Even if it was something I had wanted all my life and there was only one of them ever made. NEVER.

Listing claims mod & full chokes. With barrels cut this can't be, unless they were backed bored. I wouldn't waste my money on this.
