I must humbly disagree Bruce. Those drop points are Remington drop points without question IMO. And the "thumb grooves" are commonly seen on guns with 'trap combs'. The crotch grain quality of the American black walnut is very commonly seen of Remington DH and CH Parkers and the ventilated White Line pad is period correct.

The border of the checkering is also typical late Remington Parkers as Remington's borders were not mullered and as seen on this example, there is a diamond or trapezoid at most every corner of the border.
