I think someone took a typical bird hunting shotgun and made it into a Riot Gun. Markings are iffy, at best. If the barrel started out its life as a Modified, it doesn't turn into a Cyl barrel just because someone crossed out one marking and added a different one. This is just my opinion, for what it's worth.

The numbers look too low for WWII.
AFAIK there is no such thing as a MOD choke barrel with a REAL ord bomb on it.
The receiver markings are close, but no cigar.
Not real.

It turns into CYL when you cut it back to 20".
But the barrel did not come with the receiver anyway.
The numbers are probably more than 50k too low for 1941.
