I gave Bruce a "thanks" for his post, but I have seen more than a couple of Parker orders where they shortened barrels. In addition, customers thought that Parker Brothers could restore chokes in shortened barrels. In my experience with "fat" bores, I think Parker Brothers did try to accommodate customers by overboring barrels and restoring chokes on short barrels. I, or maybe Mark, can come up with an example. I agree that an album picturing rib terminations, but I think all such pictures should be accompanied by bore and choke dimensions and PGCA letter implying that the termination is factory work. Without such documentation, the termination would be just another rib, original or maybe not.
