I had a 28 gauge skeet VHE once and it had a couple of extra scrolls from factory and was told they were used to cover up a couple of imperfections on frame. Bobby

No imperfections to cover up on my gun, just a nicely done flower on each side of the receiver. The gun was about mint with no other sign of modifications.

I have heard guns with a few extra flourishes/embellishments as "Friday guns." The idea being that if an engraver was finishing a gun on a Friday afternoon they would spend a little extra time on the gun they were working on instead of starting a on new one.

The earlier Parkers with no rib matting usually had a flower engraved where the rib joined the doll's head extension.
