Question about my G grade

[Jack Johnson]

On the barrell flats it say's overload proved and parker guns works

It also say's made in the U.S.A.

Jack,I would think you are correct that the gun originally had damascus barrels.At the time Vulcan Steel was being offered on VH grade guns and Titanic steel on D grade guns. Judging by your observation of barrel flat markings I would venture a quess that the barrels are Parker made. Could you post some pictures of the flats and a good quality photo of the rib. That will tell the story...

[Bill Murphy]

Your Remington repair codes denote June of 1939, within the time that unmarked ribs are probably used on many new guns as well as rebarrels. You seem to have a legitimate Remington rebarrelled Damascus era Parker. I would suspect that Remington trashed all Damascus barrels that were sent in for rebarrel jobs. You have a rather unusual variation of Parker history.

Jack,Your gun 91493 is listed in the "Serialization Book" as a D2 12ga. 28" PG gun with no extras.

I don't know if these pics will show the stamp code or the Parker gun works stamp but here is what I got .
