Would almost just cutoff the barrels to around 28' just to get past the damage part and rebead, seems easier than to bend out the dented barrel and really could even cut one inch and be past the damaged part. Barrels are 30' and bores look bright and shiney with no pitting, however the muzzel end on the right barrel is noticeably dented in. Over all the shotgun seems to be in good condition and locked up real tight with no looseness and even used a dollar bill to see how tight the action held barrels when closed. and has serial numbers and after a internet search seems to be manufactured by Cresent Firearms and sold by Sears Co., apparantly made up till about 1940s. Uncle got it from someone else in a retirement home. Son just brought this shotgun to me and was given to him by an uncle.
