Enjoy your Parker. Your now bite by the "bug".

Thanks for your reply,based on the serial number is there a way to learn what were the original specs on this gun ie chamber length, chokes, barrel length etc.
I have been shooting trap loads 2 3/4 with no issues.
On a different note as I have been looking at the post,s and pictures of other members, even though I am excited to own and shoot my Parker I see that on my particular gun it is like comparing a broken down 1959 Volkswagen (mine) to a Rolls Royce Phantom (some of the other members). There are some beautiful guns shown here.
