Hello Garry , the gun is a CHE 20 Gauge ,Early Remington Era Gun so there isn't much info. on the gun ! The gun was ordered by Nathaniel L Breedlove ,May 1938 and still carries the Silver Shield with NLB Engraved on it ! I have owned the gun for many years , It has a Straight English Style stock with an odd checkering pattern for a C Grade , Fancy but not like any other I have ever seen ,the stock has the correct serial # as does the Forend Wood ! The Barrel Wedge engraving is Runge according to all the Professional eyes that have ever seen it ,also hs 26" Barrels with a small Beavertail Forend !I wish the IBM Cards would have more information ! It is built on the standard O Frame and weighs about an even 6 Lb. ! Very comfortable gun to carry !

Russ, please give everybody a treat (myself as well) and please show us the full length of the stock with that beautiful checkering? I think that CHE 20 of yours is the nicest Remington Parker I’ve ever seen.

I've not seen much engraving from later guns -- this gun's dogs and birds are excellent, and what a nice configuration for the uplands. Thanks for sharing the photos (and to Dean for passing them on).
