I have a 16ga DHE, with sling swivels, and I have seen several other Parkers with them. A fellow I consider fairly knowledgeable in the oddities of Parkers, who also happens to be a former President of the PGCA, indicated to me that he felt they were original, Meriden, installed swivels. That said, I have yet to see a research letter where either the order book, or stock book has noted that swivels were installed on the gun for which the letter was written. I'm sure there are such entries, just that I've yet to see one.
