I am in the same situation with a couple of my Parkers and you don't want to overstate the matter.
Bruce ... You make a good point about the records being incomplete ... If it had 3 1/2 inch chambers Destry would love this beast ... It's definitely a waterfowl gun for use in a duck blind, cuz it's as heavy as my 36 inch 8 gauge lifter gun ... It's the only Bernard gun I own so I'll get Dale to recolor the barrels and I'll clean and polish the rest of the gun.
