I like your style Jim! Has your XE been restored, or is it a closet queen?

Chris,
It appears the wood has been refinished but the metal appears original ??

I always come in at the end of these conversations for some reason and with today being so cold and I am just sitting around I thought I would post this one ! I sold a few and bought a couple but this one is a Keeper ! I shoot it well and Love the Late Remington era guns so I couldn't resist it ! I purchased it from an Older Gentleman on line that explained to me he bought it years ago " early Seventies and had stayed in business longer than the buyers had stayed alive and that when I purchased the gun it was actually the third time he had sold it ! When he initially bought it ,it had the case and has been sold each time with the case included which is Stamped Parker Co. Gun Works ,which I think is a Great Accessory to the gun !It is a VHE , 1/2 Frame 12 Gauge in Fairly high condition and according to the latest list of Half Frame guns that I have seen it is the Latest in the Serial Number Range ! It's a bit unique as it has an extra touch of engraving on the bottom of the receiver so it must have been a Friday Afternoon Finish gun ,it is as it letters with one exception ,the Letter says Full and Full and the Barrels are Stamper Mod and Full ! I feel quite fortunate to have snatched this one up !

Russ, is that a buck's head or buck's antlers?

.

You know Dean , the first thing I thought of when I actually had it in hand was Buck Antlers !!! I sent for the letter immediately hoping something about the extra engraving and also the case would be mentioned ! Of course with the IBM cards I really didn't expect it and as you can see by the letter neither was touched on so I guess we will never know for sure !

Nice find Russ! A 1/2 frame is on my long term list
