Dean , Now ,,, That is a scenario ,I hadn't thought of ! My thinking is ,or maybe my HOPE ,Mr. Valentine delivered the Parker to Kirkwood Bros. in hopes of having a stock repair or restock if necessary and the Gentlemen sent the gun to Parker Bros. for restocking ,and upon return since they in fact had the job in house but had in fact sent it out ,upon return ,stamped their own markings as if they had done the restock ,but ,Parker Bros. kept very good records and since they are available to us today ,this might be a stone uncovered ! I was hoping others might have found these same markings on their guns also !
