On my 1894 10 ga with the 28" barrels, both muzzles measure out to .760". The serial # is P136xxx, which Semmer's book puts as a 1908 manufacture.
Again, the ends of the barrels looks exactly like the ends of my 10 ga 32" barreled gun.
I am reminded of what I've learned about Colt pistols, "never say never" when it comes to what may or may not have been done way back then.

PS. I took the butt plate off the 28" gun and found that there are 3 over lapping 3/4" holes drilled most of the length of the butt stock. Factory? I haven't a clue. Nothing in Semmer's book addresses that either.
