The Last Parkers
Has anyone had any experience with Remington Parkers right at the end of production? Guns in the 242xxx serial number range. I was looking at a CHE in this range. The barrel rib had no markings. Typical nice Remington wood. Correct engraving. Correct checkering. But the serial number on the barrel flats and forearm iron were over stamped. Is it reasonable to think that these guns were put together with parts in inventory that may have been seralized already?
I wouldn’t buy such a gun but just thought it was interesting.
