I have seen it before and it could be factory. Of course, a particular one being looked at could also be an addition.
Another thing that Parker did was a kind of sunburst pattern on the breech face of barrels. It is not often seen on guns other than ones in higher original condition.

Or where it has been applied on a set of barrels to make them appear to be in higher "original" condition.

True Dean.
I have heard that can be replicated with a business card edge and a lapping compound.
