Bibb, it's sad that the barrels have been sleeved but most folks didn't know that Damascus barrels are perfectly safe to shoot with appropriate loads. A lot of Damascus barrels were discarded or sleeved back in the day. The ammunition companies and gun manufacturers told us so.... It was a conspiracy to get people to buy new guns and the new smokeless ammo.... too bad.

The cutouts in the extractor for the firing pins are not unusual for a 1902 (approx.) Parker.

The checkering pattern on the forend is that of a Grade-1 (VH) Parker and quite different from checkering pattern for the Grade-2 (GH) gun that you have.

The buttplate and screws are correct to the gun

We'd like to see pictures of the entire buttstock and detailed pictures of the checkering on the grip.
