Check for a "2" marking on the forend lug. Could be a second set of barrels on the gun. A research letter MAY confirm an additional set of barrels was added by Parker. Also compare style of serial number stamping on the barrels to that of the gun/forend.
That later era would be a larger san-serrif font.
The space at the end of the barrels rib confirms that set is not cut. but it may not be original to the gun.
