It appears 80078 was rebarreled sometime between 1926 when Parker Bros. began using the PARKER BROS. OVERLOAD PROVED stamp and the acquisition by Remington when it changed to PARKER GUN WORKS in the middle of the stamp. The letter P in the circle shows the owner opted for a lower priced set of barrels than would have been "standard" for a Quality DH. The P in the circle stands for Parker Steel normal for a Quality PH gun. At that time a Quality DH would have a T in the circle for Titanic Steel, a Quality GH would have a P.S. in the circle for Parker Spec. Steel.

Very sure the vent rib was done after market by someone other than Parker Bros. Doesn't look like the Simmons ribs I've seen tacked on top of the original Parker rib. Possibly a Moneymaker?
