And those other markings on each side of the water table are different too. The lower part reads BMP from what I can make out.
I am pretty sure I have seen the Parker Bros mark on some water tables before.
The 1/2 frame was not devised by Meriden until 1930 as far as we know based on factory drawings. But it is believed that, though Meriden likely made a run of the frames, they were not made into completed guns until the Remington (Ilion) era.
And there are all sorts of odd markings on the barrel flats.
The serial number being stamped on the barrel flats is a Remington thing.
You may want to double check ALL of the frame measurements and compare them to what a 1/2 frame should be.
