Okay.... Now I see that it is a Parker Repro - but is copied from original Remington Parkers that were used as patterns (in every detail) to be used for the Repros.

No, I intentionally described it as a post-Remington era example in an effort to give the Repros a little love and recognition they so richly deserve. They're part of the game, too; you know.
