Parker SB Trap Guns

[Dollar Grade]

Measured the choke constriction of my SC yesterday. It is 0.045" and about 5 inches long. Is this pretty typical ?

I do know that if I shoot too early I often times miss the target. It works great for the Annie Oakley shoot, will break them at the 27 yard line and the target nearly on the ground........if I do my part.

I shot a Fox with .044" constriction in the 2nd barrel over the weekend. Same story. I ended up with some LOOONG shots when I forgot that there was a second trigger. Birds still broke well (once I stopped swearing at Double triggers in 10 degree weather)

Kurt, what is the bore diameter of your single with the .045 constriction?

[Autumn Daze]

Kurt, My SC has about .038 constriction with about 5" of choke. My son Danny loves to let them get out there and then break'em

[Bill Murphy]

My favorite is a 34" straight grip SC. Nothing sleeker than a long barrel single with a long straight grip stock sitting in the rack. It looks like a fifties rocket ship ready to blast off. I shot a round of skeet with it a couple of weeks ago.

Bill,
That must have been like shooting skeet with a rifle!

I keep telling myself I don't need a SBT, but they are very cool. And Eightbore is right about the lines of a long barreled single trap. I winch at some of those modern trap shooting contraptions. No soul at all.

[Autumn Daze]

I really think you need one of these great guns Ed....

A refinished Parker SBT SN 180421 with 34 inch barrels just sold at Greg Martin's auction last weekend. Brought @ $3,173 with the vig. I believe that it was an SC Grade although it was described in the catalogue as: "Parker Brothers Single-Sho Boxlock Hammerless Skeet Gun" How's that for an accurate description? (the silver oval escutcheon marked: Nov./L.J. Benge/1919)

Best Regards, George

Kurt,
The chokes in my SBT gun's are over 6" long. Not as tight as yours but LONG.
