Good observations all. My gut is that it is a restock, front and rear, with checkering designed to imitate and supplement Parker G grade checkering. Why no third point on the grip panels is a mystery, since the checker went to the trouble of filling in most of the fore end, you'd think he would have put the third point in on the grips. At least I dont have to worry about cracking the stock with 1 1/8 oz. Peters paper shells. Thanks for all the input.
