Frank the one I have came from a mutual friend of yours and mine , matter of fact I think you were standing there when I told him I’d take the gun . Anyway the one I got seems to be IC-M . I shot it at skeet the following Tuesday and I shot it well . Gun also was smoking at skeet doubles from 3-4 and 5 . Just got the 16 and 20 gauge attachments for my newly acquired micrometer bore/choke gauge today so now I’m capable for 10 thru 20 , perhaps this weekend I’ll get the little gun out and take a measurement .

I shot several limits of Shenandoah Valley Doves with my 1909 vintage 28-inch barrel 16-gauge KE-Grade back in the late 1990s but it has been a safe queen since I moved west. Too many new toys to blood!! My notes show the gun weighs a fraction of an ounce under 7 pounds with .024" choke in both barrels. Lug is stamped 288 right and 293 left. Assuming the 16-gauges were targeted with 1 ounce of #8s (I've yet to see a 16-gauge hang-tag) -- 288/409 = 70.4%, 293/409 = 71.6%.

Frank's Remmy looks nicer in person than it does in photos! When the muzzles are in the right place they turn targets into diesel smoke.
