Then there was a later time (the late 50s I believe) when a boss at Remington instructed that all invoices, sales orders and paperwork related to double gun manufacture (except production records) be destroyed. Oh the value of information that was in that...
As an aside, Remington did consider getting back into the Double business in the early 50s, but they acknowledged that they could not make a Parker (as they knew it mechanically) at a profit. So they did design an economy type boxlock that was to receive the Parker name. (Much like Ithaca did with Lefever). At least one prototype was built. Bit it never went anywhere, obviously.
