I have done that too...been surprised when I open the box after I won an auction. I think it is why when I sell or trade something I list every imperfection as I have been surprised/disappointed too many times.

In fact not too long a ago I bought what I thought was an early hammer 12ga. and it turned out to be a 10ga. Everything was so nice about it I decided to keep it. Or another time when I asked about the condition of the bores and was told they're good for it's age and when I got the gun there was a hole in the left barrel 6 inches from the muzzle.

You can certainly shoot your DH as is and if the stock fit's you I would be on the hunt for another set of 30" barrels. That's what I would do, if the gun fits you well, finding another set of barrels would be my goal(and that is not as hard as it sounds).

Quick Edit: Paul, what frame size is it? I have an orphan set of 12ga. 30" Damascus 1 frame barrels that might help.
