Drew my understanding of Britsh proof is that a 12 ga. exceeding nominal size (.729) by more than 010" has to be reproofed before the gun can be sold in England and is marked 12/1 on the barrel flats after successful reproof. Based on that understanding Gibbs would sell a gun with a bore of .735 and is still in proof by .004. Ed Good there would be many Parkers left in dealers gun racks if .030 minimum was the accepted number.
