Back in the last Millennium, many very reputable high end gun dealers, would trim barrels and re-choke to suit. How do I know, many of them stayed with Mom and I during the early days of the Allentown Show, and I always made it a point to bring up the subject. And they had very competent gunsmiths doing the work, so the muzzle treatments were outstanding and hard to detect from originals. Hershel was one who freely told anyone interested he would shorten barrel lengths to suit. So go for it, and enjoy your Parker, you will be amazed just how well it will perform in the field with modern shells. Just saying!
