The reverse pitched comb (heel of comb higher than nose of comb) Is most surely a trap shooters dimension. The lack of safety, again, a competition feature. The fore end iron length is the giveaway that a beaver tail was not the original configuration.
That period of engraving was, in my mind, the best.
Ordering a research letter could possibly shed light on the safety and stock.

What a great old pigeon gun, a piece of shotgun competition history. We need pictures of the trigger with all views shown. We may be able to tell you who made the trigger. It could be a Parker retrofit, but not original. Do we know how long the barrels are? We need better pictures of the stock from front to back. Your PGCA letter will be a better deal if you join PGCA and you will get the newsletter also.
