I got the gun today and it is a 10 Gauge Serial# 10931 and the barrels measure 29 11/16” and are choked CYL/IC. The gun is actually a bit better than I expected. It is missing the front bead as you can see in the picture as well as the forearm tip iron/metal. I did have some fun(even without a front bead) and shot 40 black powder rounds though it, and hit few clays in the process. I’ll post some more pictures/info in another thread.
So the barrels are listed in the Serialization Book as 29 inches. Do you think Parker called them “29” because they started out as 30 at the factory and for whatever reason ended up more than a ¼” short? I posted a picture of the muzzle, the barrels are touching and where the bead should be looks right. Though I may be wrong.
