I am not sure how much it will effect the value but surely it will. Any time you alter an original it will knock the price down. and I am not sure what you mean by spacers.

I just reread your message, did they sleeve the barrels to a 28 ga. and with the
barrels cut off two inches is there a space between the barrels at the end.

I would think that the value would be affected considerably. Who ever put the sleeves in, did they do a good job or can you remove them and use the gun as 16 ?

If she's got paper to prove that Parker sleeved a gun down from 16 to 28 I'd say that might enhance the value a bit actually. I believe that might be the first ever found of such an animal.

Could be chamber sleeves, could be barrel sleeves. What's the serial number? Frame size?

| What by chance was the serial number stamped on the CHE frame? I've been looking for a particular SN for several years that was sold new in Los Angeles in 1905.

| Van, where in CA is this gun located? I'd like to take a look at it if distance is reasonable. Thanks.

| The grade marking would be "4", a bogus set of barrels would probably have no frame size marking. A C Grade 16 with no barrels has value. Post pictures and/or the serial number for more information. Measure the exact distance between the centers of the firing pin holes and post the result and someone will tell you what frame size you have.

I thought she had paperwork proving Parker did the work? What did that look like?

| well I just got that che inmy hands ,I was way off as you probably know im new at this as you can tell. this is a 0 size frame,you can see rings at both ends of barrels,evidently where sleeves are changing it from 16 to 28 stamped in serial no is 69350 scratched in no on barrel flat and receiver is A436854.this will probably clear up a lot of guestions. would apreciate any input. thank you all youve been a lot of help so far,Van P.

Not exactly. 69350 is a Bernard 16/30 ( thankfully not the one I've long been looking for but its another destroyed 16 Bernard) and A436854 isn't a Parker number.
