It was very obvious when viewing the pair of 1901 shotguns side by side, one has much thicker barrels at the breech. In the photo on the left is a 1901 Lefever I, on the right is a 1901 Parker Brothers V, both have 12 Gauge steel barrels.
The Lefever measures .185
The Parker measures .221
Interesting comparison. I'd bet Charlie has an 8 Gauge nearing .500!
