Screw-in chokes on Parker Reproduction

Below is an unfired SCC in an extremely hard to find configuration: SG, SPL and DT -- I know of only two such examples in an SCC.

Briley, as well as others, have successfully installed choke tubes in some Parker Reproductions. If you're considering having this done with your gun I would recommend proceeding with caution, as some have had issues with aftermarket choke tube installations done where "ghosting" of the threads has shown up as a result insufficient barrel wall thickness in the muzzle area. Reputable gunsmiths will take the necessary measurements before attempting to install screw-in chokes.

Kenny, I have an unfired one. Mine has single trigger and did not come with all the tubes or wrench.

Donovan, is your gun stamped "ISC" on the barrel flats in the same area as the choke designations are normally stamped on all Parker Reproductions?

Greg, will check later. Its in the back of my safe.

Shotgun does have "ISC" on the flats and it has 6 chokes. I must have been thinking about a different gun.
