I intend to do that if Chuck is not so busy and the info is available. I only have a 24 hour window to purchase, but it would have been an ideal bird gun so I'm hoping it was ordered that way. If not, it needs a discount. Not 50% as cut barrels would in my opinion, but how much is the question.

20-25% IMHO only because to resell, you want to try to break even

I'd be more concerned about the .676" bore diameter. Normal is .662-.665". Considerable honing there. Value reduction in my opinion is significant, especially with the thin .020" WT.

Unless a letter says otherwise or the work was done poorly, who says they are opened?
I personally believe that opened chokes dont effect value all that much.

The bores are a perfect .676 in both barrels with no choke in the right and the left has choke for four inches. The overbore and cylinder in the right have me concerned.

I just measured 2 Parker VH 16 GA O Frames.
.662/.664" .664/.665" The other thing about the Cylinder choking is that all guns I have had that lettered as with a Cyl choked barrel showed around .006" of constriction in that barrel. Bob Jurewicz |

Perhaps you were not entirely accurate in this statement? "All the way" from where to where? If the walls measure .020 within the first 18 inches from the breech, you should be VERY concerned. Beyond that point, you might get away with it. Maybe.

An O frame 16 VH would be a perfect upland bird gun in cyl/IC. I have 2 parkers with factory letters chokes ordered at cyl/mod. Are you wanting the gun to hunt with?
