Looks like he actually measured the barrels. He changed his ad to read 26"...

HAH!

Even though I have no money, I was so sure of my suspicions that in my 2nd e-mail to the seller I told him I would take the gun at his asking price--providing the pictured gun was indeed as he had described--that being a 28" factory choked IC/M gun. The seller hasn't responded to these e-mails at all to say that the he was mistaken or that there was a typo in the ad--not that he had to, but that would be the proper thing to do. This all raises that little red flag a bit higher for me regarding his other listings.

Paul, SCC's were built in all configurations including splinter forends and DT's. Win-chokes could be installed in any gun, I would want to see how the barrel flats of his listed SCC are marked to make sure they are factory stamped ISC--providing that checks out I'd also make sure all serial numbers matched.

Tony, you are sure correct about the range of wood quality on Repros. However, you may not know that Mr. Skeuse owned the company that supplied the wood. The name of the company is Calico Hardwoods. They are still in business, apparently.
