Mystery Shotgun barrel

Bountied · Sep 27, 2018

I found this barrel and can't figure out what it goes to. It's 12ga fixed Mod choke 2 3/4" only and says made in Japan. It looks like a Remington barrel but the protrusion on the receiver end is longer than any of my 870s. Here are some pics. Any help would be appreciated. It's also for sale since I don't have a receiver for it.

11-87?

Look up where the ring goes over the magazine tube - a semi-auto will have gas ports.

Japan makes me think Browning

My thought as well. Give me an hour or so and I'll compare it to what I have in the safe at home.

I'm leaning Browning.

I’d say Browning too. Does it have a sliding ejector? Hard to see on my phone, do you have a photo of the ring for the mag tube?

Looks almost exactly like a SKB 7300 barrel, but the notches in the end are squared instead of rounded.

SKB was what I was leaning towards based on pictures.

It's not from an 11-87, I had one and the ring looks like a regular 870.

It's not Browning because the receiver extension doesn't look like any of my BPSs and it's definitely not from and A5. Also most Brownings that I've seen have the Montreal P.Q. mark on them.

There is a spring and detent ball on the barrel ring for the screw cap.

I've got a Browning B-2000 in the safe and I'll try to check it tonight.

My dad thinks it's from his Weatherby shot gun. I can't find any Browning shotguns that look anywhere near similar. If it had was a Browning it would most likely have the import markings on the barrel St. Louis MO & Montreal PQ

Looks like a Smith And Wesson shotgun barrel from the 1980's. They were made in Japan and had a barrel ring and detent like a 870.
