- Did anything change during the Remington period (1934-1942)?

Remington began putting much nicer wood on the lower grade Parkers. Extremely plain wood on my 1930 VH 20-gauge --

After they used up the Meriden barrels, they began using Remington barrels with plain unmarked ribs, sometime after the move to Ilion during 1937.
Remington changed the butt plates from PARKER BROTHERS --

to just PARKER --

They made a new large size grip cap with PARKER and ILION, N.Y. for the 10-, 12- and 16-gauge guns --

but I have not seen such a grip cap for the smaller size 20- & 28-gauge and .410-bore stocks. They continued to use the Meriden grip caps as on your gun.
