Parker Barrels:
To add context, the subject barrel set is from my #3 Frame 1880 Parker $85 Grade 10 gauge Lifter, 30” barrels and about 10-1/2 pounds.
Breck reported the following:
“MWT= 44 thousandths 6” from right muzzle. Vast majority of the tubes are over 50 thousandths. Plenty thick.”
When I saw the photos I remarked to Breck that the barrel craftsman needed to check himself into rehab and the Parker workman needed glasses when he matched the barrels.
Thank you Dr Drew for your assistance.
