Very nice. Are you a member of the LCSCA Michael? If so, you can find the DOM here

and a Research Letter should document to where the gun was originally shipped.

It appears to have the later FE but be aware that the 20g 2 1/2" chambers were not lengthened until about 1936.

I am a member. My buddy owns a pawnshop and he took it in for 600.00. I was amazed at how clean it was. I bought an early hammer gun from him

That gun looks to be untouched as from what I can see. The screw heads are perfect and orientated to the gun.
