There are errors in the book, and that has been discussed on this site before. For example, I have a 1901 DH that the book says was a 36" gun, but the research letter (thanks Mr. Research Director!) clearly states it is in its original configuration with 28" barrels.
Let the folks here get a good look at your gun and then let's see...
