And I just re-learned another small point about the Q1 and Q2 chokes and stamps…
“New barrel choke designations - Quail 1 & Quail 2 - were added as an option on all gauges. Apparently these chokes were introduced to appeal to quail hunters. These choke designations were dropped and Skeet 1 - & Skeet 2 chokes were offered in a revised brochure, circa 1988.”
…So, the Q1 & Q2 were dropped in the revised brochure but was the stamp on the barrel flats revised as well? Are there any Parker Reproductions out there with stamps of Skeet 1 & Skeet 2 ???
