410 Repro’s

[Wild Skies]

Like Bill said, the firing pin spacing of the 0000-frame Repro and the Parker Bros. 000-frame at 13/16" are identical, but the frames appear different. Below are pics of a 0000-frame Repro respectively followed by a 000-frame Parker at similar camera angles. Do you notice what's rare, odd and unusual with this 0000-frame .410 Repro?

The Repro is prettier.

Most would agree, however; there's a couple here that would disagree. Unfortunately it's not the answer the judges are looking for. Get the correct answer and there will be a follow-up bonus question -- unless one can come up with the whole shebang in one reply.
