A mere two inches cut off the barrels does not necessarily indicate "0pen chokes."
The gun may still have something akin to 'skeet chokes' depending on how it was originally choked. Parker chokes taper a good 3 - 4 inches or even more (according to my bore mics) back from the muzzle.
Two things to do -
1. measure the bore diameter and determine the amount of constriction at the muzzles.
2. pattern the gun with a few shots from the right barrel and a few shots from the left using the shot size you plan to use for your dove hunting and skeet.
