Not a great photo, but you can see relative frame size. From left to right: 2 frame 12, 1 frame 12, 0 frame 20, 000 frame 28. All straight stocked guns except the 28 gauge.

Is the 000-frame 28 a Repro?

No such thing as a 000-frame Repro.

Not in 28 gauge but there is in .410...
Further, to the best of my knowledge, there is no such thing as a 000-frame 28 gauge original Parker. .

Are you sure about that?

The 28 gauge is an original Parker. Maybe it is an 00 with lightening cuts, now that you mention it. If they never made a 28 000, then it's an 00 with lightening cuts. Sorry! I should know better than use my memory with this crowd of experts. Didn't mean to misrepresent something, but was only trying to show the "visual" differences.

But, to Dean's point, is it on a 000-frame?

Yes, again, only to the best of my knowledge. .
