2 3/8" chambers?
I just got my "letter" back on the VH 20 I purchased back before Christmas.The gun is a perfect match for the letter except for the added pad but I figured that was an addition made over the years, no surprise. Many thanks to our research guys! What I found VERY interesting is that, according to Mr. Bishop and company, this gun left Parker with 2 3/8" chambers. I didn't know such a thing existed. I assumed they were 2 1/2" as I believed the gun was "correct" and original. I carefully measured bore ID and MWT but took no chamber gauge with me when buying. I have not yet measured chambers but will be doing so today. Is this common? I didn't know 2 3/8" chambers existed. This gun made in 1926.
