Parker Beaver tail Forend

[Stephen Hodges]

I have a question for our learned Parker Members. Did ALL Parker Beaver tail forends have the re-enforcing bolts in them or were some missing from them? Thanks, Steve:)

All of the original BT forends that I have owned and looked at have had the bolt through the front. This included a VH 12 that I owned that predated the catalog offering for BT forends. The letter on that gun specified "Trap" forend. If I saw a BT forend on a Parker without the bolt I would question it.

All "Trap Forends" had the reinforcing rod except the .410.
It was determined the little .410 did not have enough recoil to
necessitate a rod.

Thanks guys. I thought so but i wanted to check, Steve
