Thank you Bill,
My 20 ga. is an O frame and it has 26 inch barrels with a 14 3/8 " length of pull so it fits well but I just did not picture the O frame with 26 inch barrels being built for ducks but what else would explain the 3 " chambers. Seems that quite often the 20 ga's may have been built for a lady or youngster and usually had a much shorter length of pull. Of course you read of the salesman who shot a 410 on doves and ducks so who knows. this one seems to be something different. Thanks for all the input. As I mentioned earlier, I just renewed my membership but have followed the forum for some time and learned a lot about Parkers from you guys. Too much info. to not see the pictures and the chicken coup C grade put me over the edge. Since then I have found a VHE 12 Ga. that a friend called me about in a pawn shop. It was a great price but he failed to mention that the forend was missing but with the help of you guys again, I have found a forend.
Thanks for all the help, it keeps my poor man's Parker collection going. Al.
