If you are looking for a skeet gun, be very careful. Skeet guns are like ‘32 fords. There are more of them out there than were actually originally made.

Jeffery, Parker, under Remington ownership, was making some fine Skeet guns as early as 1935, possibly late 1934, that are every bit as collectible and virtually the exact same gun as those numbered above 241,000 but you might get prettier original wood than the earlier ones. i know Remington made the astute decision that they should put nicer wood on the lower grades than Parker Bros. might have but I don't know when the decision was made to do so or when they actually incorporated the change.

I think the seller has the Skeet Out description wrong, It should say the Skeet Out was a tighter constriction, usually close to improved modified. Nice gun, too bad on the LOP. That could be corrected but it will never be "correct" original again. If you want a shooter this might be the one to get until you find the Ilion. The final bid price will likely be higher than the opening bid price. If it was $2500 "buy it now" it would be gone already.

Both of these are way before 241000.

1935 date of manufacture, in Meriden under Remington ownership.

Is that the great 28 gauge Skeet?

Yes it is Bill.

I was in Cherrys Fine Guns this morning & looked at this one. # 67724. Couple photos on their web site. Not being in the market only took a quick look. Quick glance looked too good to be true.

Cherrys have had that gun on their list for some time.
