Brian, I think the gun is post war Remington custom shop product. I have seen 3 Parkers that deviated from the catalog with high serial nos. but had various grade characteristics. All 3 had white line pads and I believe black walnut stocks. I recall they were all 20's and at least 1 is picture in the DGJ. The first one I saw was at an Alexander, NY gunshow more than 40 years ago and owned by a car salesman from Medina, NY. I don't believe that one had a vent rib but did have a beaver tail. The work on that gun was high quality, but everyone agreed that it wasn't Parker. After seeing your example I think we were wrong.
