The gun has nice 28 inch barrels, re-proofed for 2 3/4" shells, weighs 5 lbs. 6 oz. and is choked .002/.008. The drop at heel is 2 inches, great for rising birds.
Doesn't it sound like a woodcock gun? Light enough to carry easily with one hand while the other fends off brush. Open chokes for that close shot with 3/4 oz. of small shot.
