What is the minimum wall thickness on your 12-10 gauge convertible?

I have no way to measure as I have no guages.
i do know that the BBLS were shortened at some time as well.

George if you can find a smith who has and knows how to properly use a wall thickness gauge it would be most interesting to know how your gun measures. You have a most unique Parker 10 bore.
