Yes, a trait of early 28 gauge Parkers is a rim recess that will not accept an American made post war 28 gauge shell. I believe Winchester purposely promoted their ammunition division, as well as Federal and Remington, to enlarge the rim diameter so that the Model 12 Winchester 28 gauge would eject shells reliably. Unfortunately, the new shells would not fit in a Parker.
