Mark--I expressed my opinion as honestly and fairly as I could on TS. I sell a lot of items on that site. It's a very nice gun, handsome gun, great shooting gun, with original parts etc. but it NOT an original skeet gun. The gun, according to the serialization book started life in 1923 as a 28 inch GHE with DT and splinter FE. Skeet was not even a word before 1926! It's a nice #1 frame gun that has been converted sometime over the last 75 years to a skeet configuration. The beavertail looks good. The 26 inch barrels look good. I know the seller claims Del Grego denies working on the gun. Buy it as a shooter and enjoy it. Get a factory letter and convince yourself. Hey--maybe I'm wrong--it's happened before. Maybe Parker did the work or Remington! My money is on Del Grego. Good luck to you.
