#153406 - Sounds like a dealer to me - the requested LOP on this one is 14-1/4" with 2-1/2" drop. Special instructions were 2-3/8" frame, 4-3/4" grip. I want to say the gun weighs 7lbs 9oz, but my memory might not be accurate. Probably ordered for a Wisconsin farm boy.
Shoots really soft at that weight, which I will enjoy in a dove field. A little heavy for a southern woods grouse gun, but fine for preserve shooting or sitting in a dove field. I don't think I missed a bird with it when I shot quail the other week. I also had a Fox 16ga with 26" barrels that day and I can't say I enjoyed the same results.
I think it has been restocked because the wood is a tiny bit proud around the receiver and the checkering appears to be slightly larger on the stock than forearm. Not much larger, but just a little bit if you look closely. Was Remington good about retaining the perfect fit to receiver of a Parker when replacing a stock? The gun is in my office safe so I can't check the dimensions right now.
