Stevens 311 SxS DOM ?

Hi All,

First post, nice forum and TIA for any responses.

Just picked up 16ga 311 with tenite stocks in very nice condition and was wondering the Series and DOM, it has the letters "circled G", I, E, V stamped on the inside of the receiver under the left barrel chamber.

Those are just assembly marks on the reciever.

Is it made in Utica? If so then I can't date it, they never marked the shotguns back then for dating.

Do you see any asterisks * on the barrels? If so, how many? These are your choke markings.
