Did not start life as a Custom. Started in 1938 as a Trap Grade. The 26" barrels take it out of the serious shooter category. This gun would be hard if not impossible to resell. The market for this gun is to someone who has a set of 30" 20 gauge barrels to fit to it. Not long ago, I bought one of this fellow's long barrel 21s, a great Custom Grade. When I went to pick up the gun, it had grown a set of Briley choke tubes. I voided the sale, but sure liked that gun and its factory gold inlays.
Yikes, I’d run from this gun if this is true and the gun is not original! I wonder who doctored up the Cody records if that is indeed the case? Did CSMC ever have anything to do with this gun?
