If you have two, I assume you're using the shorter one?

Series 13 Vandorens have a small "13" next to the bottom left corner of the table. Some of them - the newer ones, I guess - have a 13 in an oval somewhere along the bottom.

Since you have two barrels, I'd second Paul's suggestion to have a skilled tech shorten one of them. It will be much less expensive than a new stock barrel. Barrels from most makers come in lengths from 64 mm to 67 mm or 68 mm. Anything shorter than 64 mm will need to be custom made.
