Gun # 2 muzzle...Looks 12 ga to me. This is some sort of 12 to 28 ga conversion. I don't know how well 28 ga shot would pattern coming out of 12 ga barrels though?! I don't know much about shotguns and even less about Parkers thought....

Gun # 3...This is Serial# 101548 (just says 101 on the trigger guard). It is the longer gun on the left in the original photo and has 30" barrels where the other 3 guns are 26" barrels. It is another Simmons gun and has the same sort of lines around the barrels up by the chambers. So another rebuilt gun obviously. This one is still all 12 ga though...
