Your gun will turn out to be some kind of 16 or 20 gauge Twist Steel gun that somehow got to be a 28 gauge, either by sleeving or some other method. I can see twist steel in the pictures. Notice that the seller never posted pictures of the breech area of the barrels, the full flats of barrels, or the rib logo. The gun looks like it is seriously off face also. Let us know what is going on here. We don't want one of our friends to get hurt, and we think you have gotten hurt. I hope we're wrong. This gun is a serious effort at faking a $150 gun into what an uninformed buyer will pay the big bucks for. You need to send it back, now. The lack of the exact pertinent pictures constitute fraud. Get on it. You bought a ruined $150 gun.

It is off face. It is also quite muzzle heavy. The barrels do seem to be too heavy to be 28 ga.

0 frame 28 ga barrels may seem heavy (it's all relative) but you'll appreciate it when you're swinging the gun.
I think that gun needs a visit to a good gunsmith, as I think the problem is not so much that the barrels are ' off face' as it is a problem that they were never fit correctly. (I suspect the gun was originally something other than a steel barrel 28 when it left the factory) The other possibility is the frame may be warped when it was re case hardened.

The gun has been sleevrd to 28ga. You can see the seem in the pic of just the barrel on the far right side above where part of the logo is displayed.

Man Wayne you got good eyes. I can just see the line on the right barrel but I would have missed if it if you hadn't spotted it.
