Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

I'm not sure what you mean by "bore gauge." If it's "choke gauge" then the Galazan is a good choice for plug guages. But... remember that the amount of choke is the difference between the actual bore diameter and the muzzle/choke diameter. Thus, a plug gauge can only suggest choke. A micrometer dial gauge can measure it.

To be a little more specific:
This is the Galazan gauge ($450):
Professional Choke and Barrel Gauge -The world standard precision instrument used by gun manufacturers and barrel makers to measure bore diameter and choke constriction and length. This gauge is a must if you expect to be able to determine if chokes and or barrel bores have been altered. Dial indicator measures in .001 increments. Measurements are detected by expansion and contraction of three metal "fingers" under the control of the person taking the measurements. All test and set bushings and instructions included. Comes with a handsome wood case. Gauge length 22 3/4" weight: 1 1/4 pounds
This is the one on Brownells:
CSP PROFESSIONAL SHOTGUN BORE MICROMETER SET ($509)
Brownells also has SKEETS SHOTGUN BORE GAUGE $93.99
