I agree with Bill and Richard and will add that Remington took some "liberties" with some of their Parkers in very nice wood for the grade, some unusual and interesting checkering patterns that were not the norm for a particular grade. Russ Jackson's CHE 20 comes to mind here. But, just like Parker Bros. in Meriden, the customer could have just about anything he wanted (within reason and in good taste) Bill Murphy's "Hearts" gun comes to mind here. I like the Remington Parkers very much but not more than the earlier Parker Bros. guns.
