Parker V Grade ?

That is some great setup. What are the specs of each set of barrels? Is there a frame size marking on the bottom of the rear barrel lug? There is some possiblility that a PGCA letter would document the installation of the second set of barrels. Such provenance is available on guns up to about 186,000 serial number range and repairs and add ons made during the same era (1919). The letter could give the name of the original purchaser, although it may be a retailer rather than an individual.

Number 2 barrel. The short barrell is 26in. On the left barrel I see some marks. ** JG in a cirlce with some other small mark that I can't make out. On the right side is a Circle with a V with a mark that looks like Ht with an A underneath then there is a mark that shows a 3 15. The 3 is larger than the 15.

The number 1 barrell is 30 inches long. Has a JG in a circle on the left side. On the right underside is a Circle with a V another mark with at HT with A underneath. Then what looks like an upside down cross with a 1 next to it.

It does have Parker Bros.....Vulcan steel.

My question is can you shoot regular bird shot through these barrels. I have an do not see to see any problems.
