The fact of the matter here is that each and every original Parker was hand built and varations in fit exist. Similar issues are encountered with fitting a set of original barrels to a different gun. Now, your gun is a Parker Repro, where machining was much more consistent and interchangability was a lot better, but the chance is still there for variation. I personally have fitted up a set of galazan barrels to a repro and the rib extension fit was pretty darn good.
The Galazan barrels were made complete and finished, then sold. Not made and fitted for and to the individual gun they would be going onto. So, these minor fit issues are normal to be encountered. The rib extension on those barrels may fit another gun very well, but just not yours.
You could go through the work of reinventing the wheel to make the fit better, but even then... the rib matting would still not be correct.
