Looks like a Parker forend and barrels to me, but what do I know?

Its not The Parker Skeet Gun as defined in The Parker Story Chapter IX Trap and Skeet Guns and listed in the 1934 Skilled Hands Remington Parker Catalog as The Parker Skeet Gun , but IMHO it is a Parker skeet gun that is factory modified post initial manufacture for skeet shooting. Lots of guns went back to Parker or Remington for re-work or additions . I and my friends are fortunate to own some of them.

If I was looking for a skeet gun or a 12ga for close shooting, I would give consideration to this one. Its a lot fancier than the guns Billy Bob , Blind Bat and I ( Smedley) go for walks with in the cow pastures.
