Smile 10 Ga. Barrels

These Barrels with Ser. No 61503 go to a 10 Ga. and says they are D Grade Barrels but the book says 30 inch and these are 32 inch. They have no markings on the barrels stating if Dam or maybe someone blued them but see no trace of that.If you look you see no markings on barrel flats of weight. Also no space at end of barrels. They are 3 frame.Your comments please. Thomas

Dean: The man that owned the gun was a salesman for Remington and said that the gun was at Remington for several years and he got it from them. Thomas

I have a 3 frame 10 send them to me and I'll tell you what I think ! all Bs aside maybe a backdoor lunchbox gun! The serial number stamp hit me as strange also rib doesnt look right from what we can see, Like Dean said maybe made by someone outside. JMHO

Unless the pictures of the rib matting are just too far out of focus it appears to me that whoever did the rib matting did not use the Parker natting machine. That's why I said they were not made by Parker.

Deffinately not Meriden Parker barrels. Could these have maybe been Remington made barrels? If the guy who owned it was connected to Remington, maybe he was able to obtain a rough barrel set from them and finish them. Maybe they were factory finished after Parker production stopped or finished by someone outside of Remington.
I see they do not have the wear plate on the bolt bite either.

What are you doing with these barrels Thomas?

Interesting...

Brian: They go with the rest of the gun which isn't original either.

Clue number one would be to find out if they are Damascus or fluid steel. We need better pictures of the rear part of the rib and doll's head.

A Parker of that vintage would certainly have been made with Damascus barrels and would have been stamped with a D on the foreward part of the right barrel flat.
