David,
The case looks like others i've seen. You're probably right about the gun not being original to the case, but it looks like other parker cases indeed. Another note is that the cases I've seen all have the stock and action bordering the edge of the case. The void created by the other side of the wooden insert that holds the shells is just enough to fit the barrels on the opposing edge of the case. Is it possible that your insert has been lifted out and moved so that stock/action and barrels are all jammed together. Perhpas this was done to accomodate a larger gun, other than the original one that the case was made for? Just wondering.
For some photo's of what i'm describing, check out the pictures that Bruce (BD) posted. The link is on the fifth entry, on the first page of this thread.
Best
Dean
