What concerns me is the length of the barrels, 27 1/4". I read the description on the Parker website about determining if the barrels had been cut. There is no smooth band between the front bead and the end of the rib. The barrels appear to touch at the choke end, and by feel, the right barrel is slightly more open than the left.
is it likely that the barrels have been altered? Is it possible that the gun was manufactured to a 13" LOP?
Thank you for any thoughts on this matter.

Sounds like a nice gun, I would have Brain D, put on a 1 inch silvers pad and would give you a 14 LOP,
