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.

Hi guys, pardon me but when you say "short ten" are you referring to barrel length or shell length?

My Parkers have a 2 7/8 inch chamber, which receives what we call “short ten” (2 7/8 inch) shells. If you are looking at a 10 gauge with the more modern 3 1/2 inch chamber, then I have no SxS experience to share. My Browning Gold autoloader softens the blow of those monster shells, but I would think a modern 3 1/2 shell out of a SxS would be pretty jarring. The short ten is so perfect that I have not messed with the modern 3 1/2 inch ten gauge shells in quite a while.
