I had heard that after production stopped in Japan that mismatched parts were put together with whatever was left. But in the case of this gun, if the serial numbers were changed in NJ, why would they change them to something that didn't match?

Hi Guys. I can assure you all that NJ did NOT do this work. There were cases that someone had asked to add barrels to make a 2 barrel set or had a 2 barrel set and added a 16 gauge barrel. We would have never done a job like that! Your guess is as good as mine. Thanks Richard Skeuse
