No makers identification on frames
 

Some time ago on this forum there was a discussion about Parkers (transitional guns from Parker Bros. to Remington Parkers) that have NO makers identification engraved on the frame. THE PARKER STORY mentions these type guns on pages 155-156. I wish to reopen that topic and start a list of such guns. I know of three such guns: (1) A DHE 410 ga skeet gun, sn 236223. (2) A CHE 12 ga skeet gun, 28" bbls, sn 236277 (a 2nd bbl set was added by Remington Parker) (3) A VHE 410 ga, sn 236417. I hope others have interest in these Parker oddities and will add to this list! Thanks

Ralph, A friend of mine won the Parker raffle gun years ago, when the meeting was held in Pittsburgh. He has since sold it. If I recall it was a VH grade with no frame markings. Perhaps the PGCA has a record of the gun.

Mr. Carmichael (Hammer Gun) has a DHE 12 that fits your category listed in the items for sale section. He shows ser. no. as 236397.

20 ga. VHE 235968 with no frame markings as well as 20 ga. PHE 235974 lacking same.

A friend has a very high original condition 16 ga. GHE with no frame marking at all. It also has another very unusual feature in that the hard rubber buttplate has no marking either, yet the grip cap is marker Parker Bros. Meriden Ct. it is also in the 236,ooo serial range.

Great "Parker's Found" topic here. Lets see what we can find.

No-name frame
 

This is an interesting topic. I think one sold recently at Julia's.
Any others?

VHE20 236007. No Parker markings on outside of frame. Parker Bros. with patent date on the table.

No Maker's ID on Frame
 

I once owned 235,965. A 20 ga. VHE with 26" barrels. No marking on sides, or bottom of frame. Gun had a pistol grip and DHBP without spur.

This is the GHE 16 I referenced in my previous post, 236199.
I wish I had taken better pictures to show the Robert Runge engraving in more detail.

Has anybody else seen this style of buttplate on an early Remington era Parker? This is only the second one I've seen.
