Is it possible to have perfect barrels and nice condition but zero case color receiver?
Yep, it sure is. I am the second owner of a Parker that I inherited and it is just as you describe. It has been carried in the field for miles and miles and the balance point is the receiver. That receiver has no case left and it almost looks as if it were bright nickle when it stands in a corner. The barrels show very little wear of the blue and then only at the breach where a thumb sometimes sits when carried by hand; rather than its usual over the arm carry.
