Default They aren't all the same . . .

Just like original Parker Bros. guns there are little idiosyncratic differences between Repros. The following pics illustrates one of these differences that I haven't observed previously . . . both of these guns are 28-ga. 00-frame 26" DHE Repros with SG stocks, splinter forends and double triggers. The gun on the left was purchased new in 1995, the gun on the right was recently purchased by a good friend in new, unfired condition. Clearly, the stock on the right is bigger than the one on the left, it measures just a hair under 5" heel-to-toe compared to 4 11/16" of the gun on the left. Perhaps his is a 28-ga. 00-frame Repro fitted with an 0-frame 20-ga. stock with the larger initial oval, yet it offers perfect fit at the head . . . what other explanation could there be?
