When the choke taper gets up into the 6+" range I'll admit it does seem long. But that is very common on some Parkers.

Could be 6, but I don't know for sure. One gun is 1889 and the other is 1906 or so. Very similar, despite basically two different Parker eras.

The variations in Parker barrels amazes me. They seemed to really know what they were doing though
