Not mine and do not know the seller nor do I know the story. Book lists as D2 so there may be more barrels somewhere. One owner.

Yes, the colors are not original.

I'd roll the dice on that bad Larry, bet it's a factory skeet gun.

Just what I was thinking. The horrible picture of the trigger looks like Miller. Stock looks Remington, and they could be Remington colors. Someone should eyeball it. I don't think he likes Hilliary.

Not a skeet gun, not original Remington colors, not original Parker colors, not an original trigger, and it's in Georgia. I would drive a way to see it, but not from Maryland. D2 does not mean extra barrels. D2 means it's a Grade 2, a G Grade, and the 2 in the "extras" column means it has ejectors, so it's a GHE Damascus gun. Apparently the gun was originally a Damascus gun and rebarrelled, maybe at PB or Remington or maybe neither, but he didn't post any pictures that would help us.

It is close to me but I thought skeet guns were higher serial numbers? Bobby

Right Bill. D2 -Damascus G grade. It now has special steel barrels so where are the damascus barrels? Bobby if it was north of Atlanta I would go take a look. I am thinking a Remington re do. Does the fore end look right?

Colors look like DelGrego and probably restocked by him. Bobby

I think I would call first before driving to Georgia. Not many skeet guns made in 16 GA. in 1925, non selective Miller single trigger, and the addition of a Sunburst pad are questions I would have about the gun in addition to the new finishes on the gun. The pictures are of little help since they contain more shadows than an outhouse at night and the photographer failed to clean the lens or focus their smart phone.

non selective Miller single trigger .
Am I not seeing a selector between the front of the trigger and the trigger guard? My eyes aren't great, and the pictures aren't either, but my glasses are clean.

Edgar I still don,t see a selector, but since I have no interest in the gun anyway,it matters little to me. I guess if a forum member is interested in the gun they will let us know if the trigger is selective or not.

Could be an early Miller trigger with the selector switch up on the tang safety.
