The research letter will likely tell you that the gun was returned Parker Brothers to have the steel barrels fitted, along with the ejectors. The Beaver tail Fore end, and recoil pad was probably not done by Parker. The splinter fore end latch was swapped over to the Beaver Tail fore end.
What I find interesting is the later style gold grip cap. I believe in 1900, the gun would still have had the retaining screw through the center of the cap.
