Now for the measurements
I followed the frame and barrel measurements on page 527 of volume 2 of the Parker Story. The measurements in the TPS were done with a ruler in fractions and I used a digital caliper. I could list them all out, but as mentioned in earlier posts by some of our experts they match the dimensions of the 3 frame almost exactly. Even the barrel diameter at the muzzle end of the flats (measurement F) matches the diameter of a 10 gauge 3 frame. I look forward to Mr. Murphy posting the serial number and letter info for his 3 frame 16. It would be interesting to see the chokes, when it was made, and where it was shipped.
