Even barrels touching is a "guideline". I had one inch removed from a barrel set with muzzle cracks. I know the 31" barrels used to be 32". The matting was re-terminated (is that a word?) and the bead re-installed. To the untrained eye, it looks just fine but it is a cut barrel set. When I get a chance, I'll post a pic. I think 4" or more of choke constriction is one of the better indicators. I think this is why Ron Granger writes of "Such Torment".

Just adding to the torment
