I see what you're talking about Greg - you're not "hallucinating".

Lighter areas around the choke stamps.

I'm going to presume the gun is not in your possession...

Maybe the owner/seller thought the choke stamps would show up better if he 'polished' the area a bit to make the stamps stand out. With his not very good photographic abilities, he may have believed this was a good option.

Just more WAG's Greg.

Best, Dean

Okay now it seems we're getting somewhere.
Does the sanding and bluing loss under the present choke stamps suggest anything?

Are you sure you're not hallucinating now?
