I wonder how many Parker guns were built as "skeet guns" from the ground up and how many became "skeet guns" later? Did Remington pull a gun from inventory and make it into a "skeet gun" when an order came in? I've recorded two 1-frame 16-gauges that are marked SKEET IN/SKEET OUT that have two date codes stamped on their barrel flats. Likewise, many guns I've seen marked SKEET IN/SKEET OUT have several repair codes on the barrel flats. A lot to speculate, and very few facts with the thin Remington era record information.

Dave, did you somehow neglect to mention the made up skeet guns made later than the closing of the Parker operation and the end of Remington repair codes?
