If the gun was a high condition, original Grade 2 skeet gun it would sell for well over 30k in my opinion. There are two or three grade 3 high condition 28 ga. skeet guns that I am aware of, one being priced in the high 40s and one priced about the same. A grade 3 28 gauge skeet sold at the last Morphy auction for over $50k plus the fee added to that which took it to 60k.
I think some don't realize that there were not many small bore skeet guns produced.
As for the stock, it may very well have been returned to Remington for the pistol grip stock since it does have Remington repair codes. The checkered butt pattern is correct for a Parker Remington skeet gun.
