The skeet choked barrel has a purple color so I assume it is a correct 20wt barrel and my measurements are correct at 26 3/8 The other barrel does not have a purple color. Does a 20wt barrel have to have purple color to be correct for the gun. Thanks for any information. Didn't know getting information on these guns would be so hard. There really needs to be a book written.

And on the barrels, To get the proper 26.5 inch measurement for 20wts, do you measure from the very back of the barrel (where the shell is chambered, not the total length). Doing this both barrels are 26 3/8. I saw on a post you stated that only 20wt barrels can be used with 20wt receivers. On another post you stated twelevette barrels will fit. Which this correct?

I recently bought a couple of Browning double autos. Both of mine are 20wts. However, it has a brown receiver. I though all 20wts were the dragon black color but after reading other threads, (one yours) that mentions that the 20wt was made in a brown color. Just wondering how rare is this.
