Jeffery, Parker, under Remington ownership, was making some fine Skeet guns as early as 1935, possibly late 1934, that are every bit as collectible and virtually the exact same gun as those numbered above 241,000 but you might get prettier
original wood than the earlier ones. i know Remington made the astute decision that they should put nicer wood on the lower grades than Parker Bros. might have but I don't know when the decision was made to do so or when they actually incorporated the change.
