GI New Look
 
As of today Guns International has a new look for viewing gun ads. Not bad in my opinion.

What are the thoughts of the collective on the GHE 10-gauge 3 1/2-inch, 236214, that showed up on GI this week? No "Parker Bros." on the sides of the frame or "Parker" on the bottom. No "Overload Proved" stamps on the barrel flats and a P in circle barrel steel mark instead of the normal GH/GHE PS barrel steel mark?

It would be nice to see what the stamping on the rib, if any, looks like.

We are getting off topic of Steve’s initial post, but how often do you see guns that aren’t marked Parker or Parker Bros anywhere on the receiver? Best I can tell, that one is unmarked.

Those are considered transition guns. They were produced in the transition from Meriden to Remington.

Dylan Rhodes 01-14-2026 10:01 PM

In 1933? Unless it sat around unfinished for a while?

Jeff Kuss 01-14-2026 10:04 PM

I have a vh 410 with meriden barrels, but no markings on the action.

A bit ‘messed up’ IMO through negligence, again IMO.

A Grade-2 gun should be stamped PS for Parker Special steel.
Grade-1 guns would be stamped P for Parker steel.

And stamped 3 1/2” CHAM. I’ve never seen before on a factory set of barrels.

It looks like that 10g may even have a hinged front trigger. But I cannot tell for sure.
