Buzz, the Cutts barrel was purchased for very short money and happened to be a perfect fit on one of my Parker singles. 30" overall with the full choke tube, same as the original barrel. I have used Cutts Model 12s and 1100s in NSSA competition for many years and will continue. My Cutts Model 42s are among my favorite shooting guns. Wayne Mayes was once asked if the noise of the Cutts bothered him. He replied, "It doesn't bother me, but it drives my shootoff competition crazy." Great thread.
