It seems like some are confusing bulged & dented barrels. Dents are much easier to push back out with a dent riser tool. Bulged barrels much more difficult since on a double barrel the Bulge in the barrel is usually fully Bulged around the barrel & you can't get to the inside unless you take the barrels apart. Since Parker used a very long choke cutter, you can usally cut 2" & it usally reduces the chokes one choke size more open with the barrels still touching. Then take a half round file & remove the 1/4" on the front rib matting & with an engraving tool cut a line between the matting & the smooth portion at the end of the barrel & install front sight bead. If done properly, no one will know the barrel has been cut except yourself. Or leave it alone & shoot it the way it is.
