Here is a pic of the flats of a documented 12 ga. GHE Skeet gun. I agree with Deans comments about the plugged hole for the extractor. This gun had a checkered but treatment. I do have a 16 ga. VHE skeet that has a NoShoc recoil pad that I believe to be correct to the gun, so it is possible that an original pad was replaced by DelGrego but tough to say for certain.

Does the SB list this gun as an ejector gun? What is the code for this gun in the SB? Serial number?

Bill serial # is 237237. Letters exactly as it is shown in the book, with possibly the exception of the DG Pad., ejectors and all.

The stock book may show pattern information that could document this gun as an original skeet gun. Personally, I wouldn't let the possibility of the stamping being from the Del Grego shop keep me from buying the gun.

I agree with Dean as there were a lot of guns that were skeet configuration with out being true skeet guns. Is the recoil lug on the barrels the reinforced one? If not thats a dead give away it's not a true skeet gun. Every one I've seen had a checkered butt.
