I wouldn't open the chokes on that gun, it would diminish the value by $1,000

To a certain extent, I agree with Dean that opening the chokes on the 28” M/F set of barrels of a Parker Reproduction DHE 28ga. 2-bbl. set would diminish the value by $1000. — it could be even more than that!

Look at it this way: You’re buying a 2-bbl. set for 2-bbl. set money and diminishing your value for the other set of barrels to near nothing. I believe it’s unwise to pay 2-bbl. money and get a 1-bbl. set of value out of it. I love the orig. M/F chokes on my 2-bbl. set when shooting 5-Stand — lead those 50 yard high crossers by a canoe length and watch ‘em go “POOF”.
