In the course of doing a PGCA letter on my Remington-Parker Trojan 20 gauge #238172, Chuck Bishop identified a notation for Chrome Moly in the stock book for this gun. The barrels have the normal to rib saying Trojan Steel. This is a Meriden gun but post Remington commencement of production by a couple thousand guns. The Remington date code is BE for January 1936.
There are stampings on the same left barrel flat as the date code of "M O" as shown in the picture below.
Has anyone seen these marks before and if so can they furnish me pictures and data(serial number, Remington date code, rib markings)? Email:

And of course feel free to post to this thread.
