Default Remington VHE Specs

I purchased a Remington VHE, SST, AE, ( Serial # 240203)tons of original case colors and blueing. Someone altered the comb however, and made a beavertail. I'm a long time stockmaker specializing in returning doubles back to how they were when they left the factory so the wood is not a problem. Here is my question. The Parker book lists this gun with all options as I have it, but with 32" barrels. The gun has 30" with the line across the end of it, and tons of choke in each tube. I know of one other mistake in the book with a description of details vs. serial number, could this possibly have been a mistake? I can't imagine docking the barrels on a 32 inch gun but...I've seen a lot of hacked up messes in my life. Is there anyway to tell for sure? One thing I don't like is the bead on the gun. The end bead is some sort of a RayBar looking thing instead of a regular upside down bead. I'm an L.C. Smith freak, so this Parker has me thrown for a loop as I just don't deal with a lot of them, but this one sure has good metal. Can anyone help? Thanks so much, Respectfully, Jake
