PBB, unless the 20 ga. receiver is totally different (I've never owned one of those) than my 3 50s and 1 59, Dave's barrel should measure 28 inches? My 30s measure 29" from the front of the receiver as Dave measured his 20 ga. The 26" inch barrels measured 25" the same way?

"The 20 gauge was 27".. you measured correctly.."

Are you sure? Hap

Dave,

FYI:

The way Winchester and many other gun companies measure the length of a barrel is from the muzzle end to where the brass part of the shell rests at the back of the chamber. The Model 50 barrels were made in lengths from 26 to 30" and a vented rib was optional. A 20 ga. is worth about $150. more than a 12 ga. They were made from 1954 -1961 and there were about 196,000 made. It was also re-coil operated, not gas.
Hope that helps......

Linda
