looking at a post war model 64 with a 20″ barrel, gun looks right except it has the longer front ramp sight found on the 24″ barrels.  I know the prewar 20″ barrels had a shorter ramp, did the post war 20″ barrels use the longer ramp?  The muzzle diameter is the same as the prewar barrels.

Ken,

I have not closely examined very many post-war 20″ model 64 barrels. That stated, I would expect to find a short ramp on all of them, regardless of when it was made.
