Hello, I am looking at a Ducks unlimited A-5 in 12 ga.
The owner says that it has a 22-inch barrel that came from the factory.
Can any tell me if that is true or his not measured the barrel right?
Thanks, Kelly

I have a hard time believing it has a 22” barrel. I believe those were threaded for chokes. If it still has chokes I’m guessing it’s factory and he measured wrong

Or someone swapped out the barrel, known or not to the seller. Hard to mis-measure 6”.

I found a couple in seconds. The 12 had a 28”, the 20 26”. Might be other DU models, but who’d buy a 22” duck gun, especially a commemorative?

I have seen pictures of it and it was that short looked really funny or ugly it ruined the gun's looks.
He sold it to someone else.
Thank you for your answer.
