Bores are good, thankfully. Over 30 everywhere I measured.

If I can’t break targets with it , it may not be long in my accumulation .

Craig now that's my kind of 16ga, congratulations. Just the way I like to find them.

What a gun... It makes me wonder.... A 16ga on a #2 frame, with that much barrel thickness sure has to carry some weight. Why was it ordered that way and what was the original owner doing with it ? Waterfowl I would guess.

The many iterations of the Parker shotgun.

I shot the DH 16 32” 2 frame today and yes I can break targets with it . But I can’t play around with it , it’s choked tight enough that the A Game is needed especially on close ones . Anyway it’s staying for a few years unless of course they need to plant me . Now if I could find a VH/VHE or DH/DHE 20 gauge 32” F&F on a 1 frame dare I say with 2 7/8” chambers . But an 0 frame would be fine as well . Oh yeah failed to mention the 16 32” letters with factory cut 2 7/8” chambers which I find very odd .

Craig I bet there were a half dozen guys that were praying you couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with the gun LOL.
