My head shaker happened in a pretty well known and respected gun emporium so I won't mention the name. I was looking at a Parker and opined that it was too bad the barrel had been cut. The clerk said, "I wouldn't be too sure about that; you know those Parkers are made in England and over there they measure in centimeters which are different than inches." I didn't know how to respond to that, so I didn't say anything.
