info on parker double

new to parker. recently found a 1901 v grade double barrel 12 gauge in my grandmas basement. no stock or forend. was wondering if someone could point me in a direction to get an original for it. everything else on the gun seems to work fine. any help is greatly appreciated.

Is it missing the forend iron (metal) too? Nice find! maybe I should spend more time in my grandparents basement. :-)

Look around maybe he was going to refinish and never did. look high and low and in anything that it would fit into.

Yeah, I would find it odd that the forend wood is missing, but not the iron. That would hint to intentional removal.
If you cannot find any of the parts, keep an eye out. Sometimes they pop up on Gunbroker and Ebay. Or there are many out there that could make new wood for you.
