The Remington era specification sheets for their Parker guns are reproduced on pages 164 to 169 of The Parker Story and show the chambers 1/8 inch shorter then the intended shell. A.P. Curtis did a couple of articles in The American Rifleman (July 1936 and March 1938) on the virtue of short chambers.

Pete, my Mahoney girl is 7 1/2 and is at the height of her powers. She is a bird machine. Currently her daughter is pregnant and I'm first in line for a puppy.
