No, I do not a have a barrel set with a full choke, nor have I ever used a full choked 20 gauge Parker.
The other family 20 gauge doubles are also IC/M (Weatherby O/U and SKB SxS).
This choke combo must work for most small game hunting or it would not be so common from gun makers.
My personal experience is that the modified choke will kill birds as far out as I can reliably hit them. For instance, when a flushed quail has escaped and settled in to sail to safety, they are very easy to hit and kill with the modified barrel.
For special applications such as shooting competition skeet or Woodcock, there must be
benefit to more open chokes (Q1/Q2) or people would not have them.
