Are you saying you think the stock carving and checkering is Remington factory work and that you believe the wood is B grade quality? I'm not sure I understand by what you mean about the Scores gun having " B grade wood".

To my novice eye, I see a difference between the Scores gun and the 1911 B grade, but then , I don't have a Rem Parker B grade to look at.
