Is it possible that it is a typo? - Could it have been "refined"

A wild ----- guess, could it mean that gun had just been put back in the line of guns being offered by that company and it was among the first made?

Could it be an early term for chokes or a new proses parker used for choking when they went to Breech loaders? That is about all I can come up with....

A typo is a possibility I suppose.
I'm quoting from my 1947 Charles Scribber's Sons printing - does anyone have the original first printing in order to compare? .

Hello Dean ,I Do Not have the answer to your question but I have the best book to look up Gun Terminology ! This book is " The Firearms Dictionary " ,written by R A Steindler and sold through Stackpole Books and has a copyright of 1970 ! I looked up " Relined " and it is not in the definitions category ! I would have no idea myself but I don't believe it was an exact terminology such as Choke ,Boring etc. ! Good Luck in your search ,very interesting !

Could it have something to do with the transition in Parker Bros doubles from being way overbored to being bored true to gauge in the mid-1890s?
