parker20.jpgsure looks like it, but mine has checkered stock & forestock - - maybe grade 1, or maybe done later - - ? There is also a black insert on the very front of the forestock, that looks like plastic - - but can't be if it original - - you have one of those?
I worked for MODICON, in the old mill building, and have the dubious honor of selling the first programmable controller to Exxon - - the very first in the petro-chemical business, I believe. Stayed at the old Inn on Andover Academy campus when I made my monthly visits - - got the same room, next to a big pine tree, where crows landed and woke me (without fail) at 6am. (Also had a German shorthair at one time).
