Default Parker Help Please

Hi,

A friend has what appears to be a 26" strait stock...in decent condition. Can anyone confirm the configuration of SN 83086? Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

KC

Interesting and thank you for the data. So the barrels were not cut they are original. Based on the response am I reading that this is somewhat uncommon?

Is it 26" or 24"? If it is 24", you will have many collectors interested in it, including yours truly. I would like to look at it. Is it in Maryland?

Mr. Kordell, the 24" original barrel length is the interesting and unusual feature of this gun.
