Default Vh 28

Looking back at some older threads I recalled a Vh 28 gauge that was for sale at the Gettysburg show, and happened upon the gentleman who was selling that particular gun. After a cup of coffee and some conversation the gentleman allowed me to take the gun down (yes I got the same 21 forearm story) and what I found were matching serial numbers distinctly worn and aged in proportion to the gun. Upon looking at the barrels they did measure 28 inches , not in agreement with SI book. Looking at the matting although quite faded, with a glass I saw the spacing and line at the end , again with the proportional 109 years of wear. Going a little further I found the gun to be choked at .010 and .016. I was intriuged by the bold lettering on the reciever (never saw that before) and took a picture (yes at a gun show). I don't quite agree with the 32" theory. Any thoughts?
