Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

It appears that those barrels do not have the reinforced forend loop.
Presuming that the vent rib is of the "aftermarket" persuasion, and the gun may possibly have had an aftermarket BTFE.... and knowing that the non-reinforced forend loop might have pulled away from the barrels because of the extra force applied due to the BTFE, which is pretty common... (again, assuming it may have had a BTFE) that pin may have been an anchor point for a rod that went up between the barrels to the top rib to ensure the forend loop would stay put.
Just a crazy WAG on my part.

Assuming that is not a Parker rib, Dean and Richard are probably right about a pin to attach the forend lug to an extra piece of metal that goes into the middle of the barrels and possibly to the top rib.
