Was owned by a friend of a friend. I was interested in buying, he interested in selling.
Purchased a couple of pre-'64 Winchester Model 70's from him at same time; 90-95% 257 Roberts Supergrade and 95% 22 Hornet, pre-war.

Sounds like your friend was quite a sport. Takes a special guy to appreciate a 257 and a Hornet.

Your D looks great. I have had four D-grades from that period and each one had wood that is exceptional when compared to later guns. Hope you enjoy your 16 as much as I have enjoy mine.

A Supergrade Roberts be still my beating heart!:bowdown: I'm working on a pre war Hornet, time will tell though. Until then there is the std and the carbine to play with.

I have a 12 ga DH from that same era and they are similar. 16's are so versatile. Not to hi-jack the thread but is the x stamped into the forend lug a Remington code for re-blued?

That is my kind of gun. Enjoy it! Too bad none of the hunting seasons are in.

I have no idea on the "X".

It is not anything to do with a Remington repair. Or else it would have a repair code on the barrel flats. There is thoughts that the ad in various places on Parker guns has Meriden origins and is an inspectors mark of some sort. But no one knows for sure.

Pretty sure my 16 D has the same mark. I'll check when I get back home after the 4th.

Thousands of Parkers have that same X on the forend lug. It is a maker's mark or inspector's mark.

There are also + stamps on barrel flats and elsewhere.... not to be confused with the X stamp.... but we don't really know the meaning of either for certain.
