The cartouche? The cannons look fake to me, and I'm not an expert in these things...just a sucker whose fallen for a couple of fakes in years past. -
Total fake. Serial way too low. adapter modern repro. markings fake.Comment

Also the barrel should extend out to the lug. Might be a m12 mag tube.Comment

Past experience has told me that Rock Island offers no guarantee as to description vs. the actual item. So it is imperative that a potential bidder read the description. The description for this shotgun tells you exactly what it is, without telling you what it isn't, which is a real trench. Here is an excerpt from their "Terms and Conditions" as to guarantee:
"RIAC does not guarantee or make warranties on any lot sold. The bold headline of the description is the only written statement RIAC will guarantee as correct. ""There's a race of men that don't fit in,
A race that can't stay still;
So they break the hearts of kith and kin,
And they roam the world at will." - Robert ServiceComment
