I recently stumbled across a 1928 VH 12 bore with 26" barrels on a 1 1/2 frame that was priced about like a well used Trojan. Turned out it is virtually new. Barrel blue and stock finish at original 99.9%. Screws have never been turned. Case colors faded but there. Striking marks still on breech end of barrels. Perfect untouched bores. Buttplate doesn't look like it has ever been on dirt. Stock dimensions of 14 3/8" X 2 1/2" X 2 3/4". Needless to say it now resides with me. Point is, keep up the hunt--they're out there.
