It's pretty obvious the barrels have been cut, so there may or may not be some choke left in them. If they are cut to 26 inches there will likely be little choke.
It also appears the entire gun was refinished at one time, and it appears all the metal was reblued, but not "rust blued" which was the proper finish. If it was what they call "hot blued" which is the common method on modern guns now, the barrels do need to be checked by a competent gunsmith familiar with double barrel shotguns. "Hot blue" eats away at the solder of the ribs and other parts that hold the barrels together. They may be fine but have it checked out.
Also, the stock is surely a replacement but it has excellent figure and looks nice.
It's an heirloom so enjoy having it, and I hope you get to shoot it a bunch!
I measured the barrels last night and the were cut off at a little over 27".
