Back in the day, the Grade 0 and 1 guns were listed in the Parker Bros. catalogs were listed as having American Walnut stocks. The Grade 2 text said America or imported, and Grade 3 and above were imported. Between the 1923 and 1927 Parker Bros. catalogs "imported" disappeared from the Grade 2 and 3 catalog text.
In the days of the Remington Hammerless Doubles The A- to EEO-grades all came with imported walnut stocks and the K-grades introduced in 1900 had American walnut stocks. With the introduction of their autoloaders and pumps, the entry-level A "Standard" Grades had American walnut stocks and the B "Special" Grade and above had imported walnut stocks. That continued into the 1930s. In the late 1930s about the time the Parker operation was up and running at Ilion, this notice appeared in Remington catalogs -- Selected Figured Walnut, February 15, 1939.jpg |

Define "club". Is this gun an original skeet gun and was it an original 20 gauge?

I dunno everyone has their own opinions . I’ve had my paws on several of the Remington era 20 gauge VHE skeet guns and they all felt rather lively to me . But I like the 26” straight grip BT SST configuration .

The gun was a two-barrel set, PG, SST, don't remember butt treatment. It just seemed heavy and not well balanced compared to other guns I owned, including a 12 bore VH straight grip 30 inch gun.
