Rock Island does not post the results for a while, and they put them on line when they do (or mail you a list if you participated in the auction). I think the gun that Mills mentioned might have had a replacement stock (at least when I looked at it, it sure appeared to be so, but I don't claim to be an expert). It had nice dimensions and was in good shape, certainly one of the nicer Parkers at the sale.
