One inch, center to center, would indicate a 0-frame which, in the Remington era, would indicate a twenty-gauge or less likely, a sixteen.

However, the charts show the 0-frame as measuring 2 1/32" across the face of the breech balls.

Much earlier when Parker Bros. first introduced the twenty-eight gauge it was built on the 0-frame.... but this thread is about Remington Parkers so disregard that.
