I have a GH 20 gauge with 26” bbls where the matting goes all the way to the end. The PGCA letter confirms they left the factory that way. Cutting barrels is highly frowned upon today and outright condemned on these forums. The wringing and gnashing you see is because someone doesn’t want to buy an altered gun at a premium price. However, if you are interested in a Parker with cut bbls just realize, as a general rule, it’s not going to have the value as a similar gun with uncut bbls. Also, if you like a gun with cut bbls don’t worry about what anyone else thinks. It only matters when it’s time to sell.
