Yes, it is the gun donated to the PGCA by Paul Dorsa.
It is a Remington era gun and there is nothing that would support the stock being a factory modification.

I didn't remember it having the vent rib and beaver tail forearm, but then I wasn't really in to that kind of stuff the last time I saw the gun. The Dorsa gun was sold by the PGCA several years ago.

As I recall, the stock was considered to be original. Don't know what that was based on. Do we know how the gun was choked?
