Are you sure the "3" is the frame number marking, or could it possibly be the grade marking. Where is the "3" stamped?

and you said cut from 32 - that would make sense- a 32 inch 3 frame 12 is a real find for a waterfowler. if it were mine I would watch for another set of 32's to add to it-

the weight stamped on my 32" 3 frame 12 barrels is 4 pound 11 ounces

Even with barrels cut to 25 1/2 it heavy but I like it and I bet if only it could talk the stories why I like shooting and hunting with these old Parker guns they have feel and history in them and I shoot them well . Adds to the hunt the dog the gun is what keeps me doing it
