Can anyone tell me what the original barrel length was for hammer gun serial number 7035. The barrels are currently 29-1/4”

The Serialization book says 30", so it may have suffered some muzzle damage and been trimmed back. There are plenty of documented guns where the barrel is a small amount longer or shorter, but I don't recall one being 3/4" shorter without having had something done to it.

Thanks!
That makes sense as they look to have been cut badly but still some choke remains.
I will be posting some photos once I get a letter on the gun
