Jim:

Welcome aboard. Do become a member of the Parker Gun Collectors Association and order a factory letter from our Research Chairman. It all adds to the enjoyment.

However, here's a minority opinion: Yes, the gun is your property, to do with as you wish, and it has already been altered. But if it were mine, I would not want to alter it further.

I do have two Parker guns, of my total of six, that are very similar to yours. They came to me altered, are more tightly choked than needed for the hunting I do, but they still get plenty of use on clay targets.

For me it is important to preserve as much originality, that is, their essential nature, as I can for as long as I own them.
