Dave,
That would be my guess. I had a 20GA DHE 32" restore by DelGrego with the same issue. The screw holes were fill and engraving was restored. I was always unhappy with that imperfection. Bob Jurewicz |

An original ejector splinter forend with serial number and a replacement ejector splinter forend without serial number. For the money being asked I would want to see the number on both the beavertail and the butt stock. I assume Parker Bros stamped the number in the beavertail as well. Anybody got one with iron removed to show the number? Cheers Jack

I have a skeet configured 20 gauge VHE with similar holes. Maybe I should go for a pair. Bob, did Del Grego fix your holes or did someone else do it?

Bill,
I assume DelGrego did it as part of the restoration. Bob Jurewicz |

Picture of the repaired Site Holes.
Where are the two repaired holes (this is a test)? Bob Jurewicz |

To be clear about ejector forends and serial numbers.
When they are serial number stamped, they are matked in the location that Jack showed a picture of above (in the inletting where the mainsprings are). But, I have observed MANY completely original ejector forends that are not stamped at all. In fact, more that were not than ones that were. And sometimes when there are nunbers in that location, it is not the complete number. In fact I would say that both forends that Jack has in that photos are original. Just one is stamped and one is not. Other ways to try to authenticate ejector forends is that sometimes the impression of the serial number from the latch and banjo tip are left in the wood. Also on later guns (from the 30s and 40s), the grade number is stamped in the inletting for the latch (in the front round portion). Ie: a large “3” on a D grade.
