Parker Repro Made in Japan?????

Pittypatdugan · 02-08-2011, 11:45 PM

Looking over my 2 Parker Repro's one a 20, the other a 28 with 2 barrels, neither has any mention of being made in Japan. Were they made there or what? I wonder why they are not marked

Thanks in advance

Look on the side of the left barrel, near the breech and almost under the forearm. I think that's where it says Japan. Can't remember for sure.

Actually, most are marked on the right side of the right barrel just ahead of the hinge pin and above the forend wood, some are marked on the top rib.

Unless they are one of the 16ga set's made by Kreighoff or Galazan. Niether of these say made in Japan.

Tis true, but PDD mentioned only his 20 and 28-ga. guns.

Another possibility would be someone may have removed the "Made in Japan" and then refinished the barrels.

I am going to check tonight

Checked with your help, 28 ga is barley visible ,light roll stamp

20 Ga was under Beavertail and just did not see.

Thanks
