Choking
To thin wall choke a gun through Briley was $300 including 5 choke tubes the last time I did it. I have a 30" Model 21 that was choked full & fuller and I couldn't hit anything. Once I had it choked it became a useful gun and I take it to the Dakotas every year for pheasants. But, I would not alter the chokes in a Parker. You know, that's kind of like putting headers on a '63 Vet. Just don't do it.
I would add that shooting these old guns is not like shooting a modern gun. For the most part they have a lot of drop in them and it requires you to be into the gun. What I mean by that is you have to be bent over, head forward, shoulders forward, leaning forward and caressing the gun deeply. These are not modern guns where you stand straight with your head high and shoot the way you would today.
