B. Dudley,

I hear ya. I’m trying to do as much research as I can before I buy it. It’s not priced as an original skeet. I’m just very concerned about the disparity in bore diameters and the lack of any choke in the right barrel. Would the factory have done a cylinder bore for the skeet in choke?

As Brian suggests, there are a lot of "skeet guns" that were something else when they left the factory. First thing I'd probably want to do is confirm if it's really a factory skeet gun.
I've owned two .410s, and I can't pass myself off as an authority, but I've never heard of .415" in a Parker .410. Maybe honed (?) Many .410 guns were F&F.
But, and that's a big but ( not butt) if it's priced right, with a cylinder in the right, and some choke in the left, you can do a lot with it, on the skeet field, or in the dove field.
