Chuck or Dave,
Could you enlighten me on the sleeving of the barrels issue. My gut feeling is that at some point, my dad actually intended to use this gun and the Damascus barrels that were on the gun were not usable/unsafe, and it simply was not practicle if he actually wanted to shoot it to put new Damascus barrels on it. Did I make any sense? I also bet that at the time like alot of future collectable things, this was "just an old shotgun". I measured the barrels and and they have been cut as they are only about 25.5" long. I will post some pics of the other 2 parkers and parts when I get a chance.
Thanks,
Bibb
