Default Remington Parker or Meriden gun?

I have SN 237758, a 20 gauge VH. It has the PARKER inscription on bottom of the frame, but the rib insciption is PARKER BROS. MAKERS MERIDEN CT. U.S.A. VULCAN STEEL. According to the PGCA letter it was noted in Stock Book NO. 82 as being completed Oct. 23, 1935 and shipped Nov. 15, 1935. The Remington IBM Card describes it as a VH hammerless 20 gauge on the 0 frame with 28 inch Vulcan steel barrels. Do you think the gun was assembled at Remington from Meriden parts?
