Orphan 20 ga hammer barrels

[Harold Pickens]

Yes, thank you Edgar, the gun came from Edgar in one of his custom cases a few years ago. Too many years of HIPPA compliance kept me from mentioning your name earlier.
Question, did early fore arms come uncheckered as the one in the pictures for the 34" barrels ser#46296.

A fore arm would only be uncheckered if it were a Grade-0 or a Grade-1 that originally came with no checkering on the grip, or by special order or request.

edit: I realize that using the word 'only' is akin to using 'always' and 'never' in reference to a Parker... we can't take it as definite.
