Harold;

Dean is so right. Trust me on this one... a 30" 28 is like a magic wand in your hands. ( a 26, 28in 28ga. is pretty darn sweet too.)

I have a BHE 32 inch straight grip 20 that has factory 3 inch chambers. Probably a California duck club gun. Interestingly enough it's on an O frame vs 1 frame. I don't recall Parker ever cataloging these as a magnum 20

Darn it! Where’s that drool emoji when I need it.

Yeah, I am leaving the very few out there for others who really want them. A 20 gauge Parker hammer gun is rare enough for me.

Could one assume that a 20 gauge Parker made with 2 7/8" chambers was made for 3" shells? I have a 20 VH with 30" barrels that letters as having a requested chamber length of 2 7/8"

Reggie is correct, although some customers specified 3" chambers, also obviously meant for 3" shells.

Picked it up this morning at Kenny Graft's shop(Sxs Ohio). Interestingly, I was there at his shop with Brett Hoops 2 years ago when the first owner picked it up, and I've wanted one since. 5lbs 13 oz with 30 in ejectors barrels with the xtended chokes in, plus came with 5 flush fit choke tubes, snap caps and case.
