IMHO, any modern gun will do fine with steel shot of size 6 or smaller, if the chokes are Mod or more open

Yes, however; it's recommended no choke tube tighter than Modified is used.

Sure, as long as you use chokes no tighter than IC and Mod.

I have a 12ga Reproduction w/ 28" barrels that are marked 2 3/4" & 3" shells.
The barrel flats are marked Modified and Imp Cyl.

Ray,
My 12 ga Repro is labelled the same as yours.

I'd be interested in members thoughts on this nice gun that's become available recently.

It's a nice looking gun and you don't see a lot of the SSS for sale. However, it is not a new gun and I think it is priced $1000 too high.

And it looks like the BTFE has a repaired large splinter chip off the left side at the front.

If all 12 gauge Parker Repros are capable of handling steel shot than I agree it’s overpriced. Have seen prices between $3500-$5000 in various conditions of non-SSS specific guns.

Excellent eye Dean..I took notice to that myself after looking at the photo's closely.
