Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

The Remington repair codes would be on the left barrel flat very close to the lug.
You may already know this but in the case that you didn't I thought I would offer it.

The only thing that is obvious, is that the gun was not supplied with that butt plate when new. What is a mystery, is that it doesn't include the word 'Brothers', indicating a post-takeover plate similar to what Remington would have used, BUT, the dog motif is clearly from the late 1800s style.
Did Delgrego have his own plate mold made? Is it a aftermarket supplied plate, ala Galazan? Very Interesting.
There are six styles shown in the front of the serialization book, and the Remington plate is clearly for something larger than an 0 size butt, so perhaps Remington did have a small plate for the lower grades in 20, 28, and .410.
All you late Remington VH(E) 28 guys, check your butts!
