Austin:

Your question is substantially the same as the one I asked in the "Parker Terms and Nomenclature" thread on 5-29-17:

"So, were the barrels of Parker guns of any gauge, including the 16, generally overbored as well as were the 12 and 10 during the brass shell era of production?

I ask this because in THE PARKER STORY (authors Gunther, Mullins, Parker, Price and Cote), page 517, the stock books are cited as noting the general discontinuance of over-boring in 12 and 10 gauge guns in the 1890s, but, nothing is said in that paragraph about other gauges."

There followed no more posts, thus is an unanswered question, on that thread, anyway.
