Just an up date on checking out this Parker. I was able to take it Ljutic, LLC here in Yakima and had one of the smith there check the chokes, chambers, and barrels. They confirm the chambers are 2-3/4, full and full, left measured .031 and the right .034. I think the barrel thickness 8"to 10" down was .030. Subsequently, bought some RST 2/1/2 in shells and shot a round of 16yrd trap, was impressed on how hard the targets broke, didn't shoot a 25 but in the high teens with keeping my head up off the stock to see the target, shot 6 pairs of doubles, broke the 1st bird, but was slow getting my finger on to the back trigger, (didn't want to place fingers on both triggers.) Fun and interesting gun. May try it on some chukers after the elk hunters are done.
