Parker 3 inch guns
Parker graded shotguns were chambered for the then-new 3 in Super-X shells by Olin-Western starting in the 1920s-30s to compete with the HE Super Fox, LC Smith Long Range, and Fox-Sterlingworth 3 inch. The Sterlingworths chambered in 3 in were using Fox HE type barrels-but few were made.
I am attempting to determine exactly how many Parker Bros guns were chambered for 3 in shells, and how/where the chamber length size was stamped. There probably were a few chambered by Parker under Remington also.
Continuing to do research on this topic and any information from PGCA members and Parker Forum members-is gratefully appreciated.
