That is how Remington marked the SN, so the RK3, no rib inscription, and SN placement would suggest you are right.
The breech end, last two inches of the top rib is referred to as the rib extension.
Did you mean to say the the added barrels are 16"? I hope not, 'nuf said.
What does the tag with the 28" mean?

Forgot to add, a One frame BH is not a common gun, so if you have the original gold grip cap, and the rest of the gun is in decent shape, it would be worth restocking. A 1 frame 12 is a lively gun, and finding a set of damascus 1 frame 12ga 30" barrels may not be too difficult (shameless plug: I have a set)
I am not alone in saying, Grade 5 guns are just so nice.

Thank you! Yes the 2nd set of barrels are 16 gauge, I’ll fix that. I think the 28 on the tag is the barrel length. My buddy is a gunsmith and tags everything so he doesn’t mix things up. Thank you for the info.
