Just been going over my u/o and spotted this stamping by the trigger guard, I always thought it was a Baikal but does anybright spark know what the stamp represents other than the fact the shottie was made in the USSR?.

Looks like JU 27 to me.
Plus I'm trying to work out what the barrels are wether they are ic/modified/full choke etc etc.
This site has parts for sale and names them as Baikal parts

Looks like Baikal to me. My SxS Baikal chokes are full & fuller [emoji16] Tighter than your average shotty.

yep, baikal olu steel = kabboom at worst, bruised shoulder at best
I won't use steel, it's lead only for bunnies, and stoats etc on the Coast.

And provided you obey two simple rules stell shot works fine. Keep shot size below #2 so 3-4 and keep payload below 36 grns. I've used 32grn #2 but won't use that shot size in heavier payload. Buy keeping payload down and shot size small you reduce the risk if shot bridging... Picture crowd of fat people all trying to get out of movies at once...then picture them being skinny.

I was of the understanding that these have tight chokes/ barrels due to their original design being used with felt wads and not the typical plastic wads we use.
I had one on the pest board. I could kill rabbits out past 50 yards with 3s in the top barrel.
My fathers old Baikal and my own Baikal IJ27E that I owned were both tightly choked shotguns. Both were marked 3/4 and full from memory and both would not accept a standard full choke gauge after many rounds through them. My fathers I would hate to think how many rounds it had through it, was used for many years as work gun on Redwood Pest (Rabbit) Destruction Board. My own one, one of a few firearms I wish I still had.
its a baikal u27 o/u .Ibought one off c404 years ago -hed had stock shortened and chokes opened out to 1/2 both tubes .shjes my favourite gun in 2 3/4 and cant remmeber how many feral gesse have succumbed to her charms ,mallards clays etcetc .wouldnt trade her for all the tea in china.
