Default Parker Repro with 28" IC & Mod

Here's a Parker Reproduction 28 gauge with a barrel/choke combo which is pretty rare, unless Barnett means opened from mod & full.

I bet they were opened up. It would be interesting to know; I've never seen a factory marked 28 ga 28" IC/MOD set. Has anyone ?

Just ask Steve to look at the original choke markings for you.

I sent an email, don't expect an answer if they are backed up by that many days. If I get a reply, I will let you know.

Are there any known factory-choked 28-ga. 28" IC/M or Q1/Q2 Repros in existence? If there are, they are mighty dog-gone rare---I've never seen one in over a quarter century of messing with them. It seems every time one is found, it turns out to be something else.

I'd sure like to find me an all original 28-ga. 2-bbl. set, SG, SPL or BT, DT, 28" Q1/Q2, 28" IC/M with a killer piece wood...I'd eagerly pay a bounty for you to find me one!

Greg, two friends bought consecutively numbered 28" 28 gauges before the closeout. One or both of those guys got a factory choke change to more open chokes. I don't know how the guns are marked as to choke. They are outrageous straight grip, splinter forend guns, double triggers. Foolishly, I passed on the opportunity to get the third identical consecutive numbered gun because I thought the retail price was a bit high. I later got my two barrel set in the closeout, but I would sure like to have bought the match to the other two guns.
