Does the absence of a Parker Bros or Parker overload proofed stamp pin a return date to the mid 1920's?
This assumes return records are not available and the history must be discerned through indicators on the gun. It looks like factory work to me.

Bruce that's my gut feeling too, that it was sent back and rebarreled the forend look early to me too, not what you would find on a "Skeet Gun" per say and to me it looks like factory work. Like a said nice gun but not sure it should carry a premium for being a Skeet gun.
