I totally agree Pete, it's a DelGrego recase job. I have 2 guns done by him,one is a 20 ga. skeet gun, PG, and the other is a 20 ga. straight grip. Both have that telltale line. Skeet guns normally have the single trigger so I think that's not an issue. Nice gun either way Erick.

It has the correct forend iron for a beavertail with the forend reinforcing rod but option code 5 doesn't support the BTFE. Code 5 is for ejectors and single trigger only.

The gun has been recase colored and the stock undoubtly repaired. I have a VHE 16 skeet with a repair in the same area of the stock and have never had a problem. The book saying it was a PG is of no importance to me. If this is the gun on gunbroker that the seller is asking 9K for and advertising as original than the DEA needs to pay him a visit because whatever he's smoking isn't legal. Its a nice gun and will make for an excellent shooter...for the right price.

I have never had a problem with Parker's single trigger and have them on several guns. All the skeet guns came with a SST.

If I wasn't so GD poor I'd buy that gun to replace my K-32 skeet set !

Regardless of whether it's original etc that would make a lovely gun to "actually" shoot skeet with and use in the dove field . Well atleast for me it would !

It's the one on GB but he has it on their at this time for $7500 .

If he came to his sences and put it at $4500-5000 he'd probably sell it.

I also have one that was re-cased with the same tell tale line. I still can't figure how a scribe line would change the color contrast (look at the pics again). Anyone know how the line occurs.

OK, I guess $40 for a look at the IBM card would be too much.

The line occurs from the buffing of the frame I think.

That makes sense, funny how the case colors react to the different surface finish. One would think the whole frame is buffed the same prior to hardening.
