In the realm of Parkers we 'never say never'. I had a Trojan 16 with 26" barrels choked Mod/Full with about 3 3/4" of choke in the right barrel and almost 4 1/4" of choke in the left barrel. Both chokes had between 1/4" and 3/8" of parallel walls at the muzzle. It was all original except that it had been very nicely refinished sometime in the more recent past. It was made in 1923 and the serial number is 202066. You can read about it in "Parkers Found" in Parker Pages. More recently the blurb about this Trojan has been condensed but if you grab an issue from 2009 or 2010 you can read the full text about this gun. It is on the 1-frame but is lighter than some of my 0-frame sixteens.
Incidentally, my brother-in-law now owns the gun and he lives about eight miles from me so I can measure the exact choke constriction if it is important to anyone.
Best, Dean
