Eric he did list the serial number. It's not in the book.

They do not look like they were cut to my eyes.

Better pictures of the top of the muzzles and the face of the muzzles would help us identify your gun as original, or not.

Chad; I blew up the pics and they do not look cut and the barrels appear to touch. Check the chokes that will tell us more.

the gun falls into one of the large gaps in the serialization book. but a close look at your pics indicate that the gun is either right, or that someone worked hard to make it appear right.

Thanks everyone! I’ll try and get some better pics tonight.

It looks right to me . I have a DHE 20/24, letters . I’ve seen a couple correct 16/24 ‘s but this is the first correct 12/24 that I’ve seen , and not just a chopped barrel gun. Interesting. Chokes may not tell much, it may have been ordered cylinder bored. I have a CH 10/26 cylinder bored, letters.

In tight brush conditions I really appreciate the short barrels. If a person extends his leading hand the tendency to overswing can be tamed.

I have a PHE16 24" that if I remember right has been cut. No chokes at all. Bruce has seen this one. It's a woodcock killer for sure!

A close look at the end of the rib will tell us more than a face on picture of the muzzles. Some original guns have separated tubes at the muzzle and some cut guns are touching at the muzzles. A look at the rib will tell us more.
