Wonder if a letter would verify when it was back to Meriden for the second set of barrels and the 1910 bolt and bolt-plate? Did it start life as a 2-frame 10-gauge or as a 12-gauge?

It looks like it was a refinished gun to me but a very interesting two gauge combo on a #2 frame.

#56553 was made as a 30" ten gauge. As Matt and Reggie surmise, a refinish. It would take a letter to explain the extra barrels. $7400 plus 15% internet fee.

Yes definitely looks to be refinished.

I'd shoot it! An interesting piece to be sure.
