Hello Dean. I didn't pay attention to the lug. I read in an earlier post that the reinforced lug may not have been introduced until around 1918, is that correct? By open recoil pad, I should have said vented, it looked like a Pachmayr white line. I just saw that it wasn't a solid pad. Thank you for the reply, Tom

Tom,
Welcome and congrats on your new Parker. Would love to see it when you get it. What a great gun for your first. A GH with fluid steel and btfe. By "open" recoil pad, I am sure you mean an open cushion pad. What kind of pad is it? If it is a white line or other type of pachmyer pad, then it would not be correct for the gun for sure. There were many open cushion pads that are period correct and very well could have been installed originally. Hawkins and jostam pads are two that are common. If your pad is not correct for the gun, it can be easily corrected by putting a proper style pad onto it. Of, if the length of pull warrants it, a buttplate can be put back onto it.

Hello Brian. I do believe its a Pachmayr. I can't wait to get the gun myself. I see that you do beautiful stock work. I purchased a Remington 11F grade a couple days ago. It has an OK replacement stock on it. But it came with the original badly repaired butt stock that still contains the gold oval inlay that has the original purchasers name engraved in it. How are the inlays typically held in place? I would like to remove it without damages. Thank you, Tom
