Sean,

It may be of interest to you that your Parker, number 200505, was consigned for sale at Abercrombie & Fitch for about one year, from July 20, 1953 to July 2, 1954 when it was "withdrawn" unsold by the consignor. It is described as a 12 gauge DHE with 32 inch bbls, a BTFE, SST, but no mention of extra barrels. The chamber length is recorded as 2 5/8 inches so you might want to see if they are original (before you shoot any heavy 2 3/4 inch loads) or if the chambers have been opened up. The stock dimensions are definitely set up for a trap gun. Hope this helps. Compliments of Griffin & Howe, Inc.

Bob
