If that is your definition of rebated, they are all that way, see example below. Have you looked at the Barrels and Chambers chapter of TPS? That work, necessary for all Parker enthusiasts, provides chamber diagrams and measurements. Almost all Parker questions are answered in TPS and 90% of what most of us know who have been around a while, comes from TPS.

What do you think a gun would look if the breech face was NOT machined out to accept the rim of the shell, and how would that work? I'm serious, I don't get it....maybe I'm dense......

I thought you perhaps meant machined out for side clips. And broadly, they are all machined to accommodate extractors or ejectors. That in a sense, is rebated.
