Dave, a Parker Skeet gun is choked the reverse of a field gun, the left barrel is the more open barrel (skeet in), the right barrel is the tighter barrel (skeet out). They were done this way because the first shot in Skeet is a going away bird. My 12ga GHE Skeet which is all original as far as I know is bored .007 in the right barrel stamped "skeet out", and .004 in the left stamped "skeet in".
