Some are bigger than others, but, in my opinion, if the little flat area with the lateral line isn't there, they're cut.

Post the serial #. If it is listed in the Parker Serialization Book you will know for sure what original length was.
I have had barrels without band that were original!

The book calls that serial number a 30" gun. So, your barrels have been cut.

The rib matting not terminating at the end of the rib is not a definitive way to tell if barrels have been cut on Parkers, but it sure is a red flag.

VH grade and above ended and had a straight had cut line at the end. Trojan grade guns just plain ended and sometimes not evenly. Or they could run off or come close to it.
