Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Bulley Bore Gauge
Just received my Bulley bore gauge. I am impressed with the quality, ability to obtain repeatable measurements, accuracy and its ease of use. I measured a couple of modern 12 and 16 bores along with two Parker 12’s and one 16 gauge.
One of the Parker 12 bores I thought to be original throughout. It is the only one I checked that has bore dimensions out of line. The nominal 0.730” dimension measures 0.753” on this hammer gun. The normal IC choke dimension patterns like an IC choke. The letter indicates its pattern as 175 pellets of #8 shot. Is it possible that the barrels left the factory with 0.753” bores?
The barrel wall thickness measures strong as seen in the attached JPEG. Any input would be appreciated. Bob

Yes, Not only possible, but very likely.
