Parker Chokes:How Tight Did They Come

[Randy Roberts]

I am hoping to take this gun of mine turkey hunting this spring. What a combination with .027 in the right barrel when they get a little tight on you, and the .045 in the left barrel for the longer shot. It ought to be a good combination.

James, the serial number of your gun would indicate that it's a bit late for .740 bores. That size of bore was normally seen on guns made before the turn of the century. Most, I say most, 12 gauge guns in your serial number range were bored at about .729 to .732. Your gun may have been "cleaned up" a bit over the years.
