I'll get a letter from Cody to see just how it was ordered etc. One thing I find interesting is my 1927 NID4E 12ga two barrel set has a forend for each barrel set and both barrels were ordered at time of original order yet this 16 has one forend. I am guessing two forends would have been an extra option?

It appears to me in your picture that the gun doesn't have cocking indicators, which generally means after 1935. If it has the later style forearm latch with the Baker J-spring and the lever actuating a Parker-style tilting block latch, that is a forearm much easier to make work on two sets of barrels.
