Charlie, to answer your question about being a shotgun that I know...the answer is No. I do know that it is a shotgun and it's a 4ga. Barrel length unknown to me. I think Dean has a good estimation of length.

Good Morning Charlie , The picture is of a Model 37 Winchester ,12 Ga. with a 40" Barrel ,The gun doesn't wear a scope anymore and has been refinished ,what the reasoning for the scope is ???? I have no idea ! I had picked this up at an auction years ago and when I got her home I stood it there and took a couple of pictures of it ,it had the scope on her when I bought it ! The other part of the story is ,I still have no Idea why I Bought it !
 ! Just thought it was kind of neat !  Russ

I have DHE 20g #168,854 30" T3 0 frame marked 3/9. Russ Bickel had a set of 0 frame Acme A grade 32" barrels now fitted to a late GHE 20g that were marked 3/11 if I recall correctly. By contrast, I have a #2 frame DH 20g with 32" D3 barrels marked 5/5...

Don,
Although not on a 0 frame, That 5-5 #2 frame 20ga sounds interesting. Do you know the original chamber length of your gun? |

The gun was shipped to Louisiana in 1919 as a 12 gauge D3. Sometime after that it acquired the heavy 20 gauge barrels. It is a straight grip with a skeleton butt and weighs 8 lbs. Unfortunately, this is after the factory records record such work.
 The barrels have 2 7/8" chambers and are choked .029/.029.
