I'm in agreement about the forend, I have a strong suspicion the stock has been reshaped. However this will be field gun and it feels so good in the hand.

So I have since shot this Parker 11 shots fired for 10 birds. One bird last week took both barrels to bring down.
Am I happy? Absolutely!
Now I need a 410,28,16 as well!

Got my Letter today, this gun was orignal pistol grip, explains the grip cap.
However someone opened the left barrel to I/C but I don't care.
It was ordered in 1914 and sent to Delaware.

If it fits and hits, what’s not to like?

I'm thinking whoever did the beavertail was a skeet shooter, would explain why the left barrel was opened up and the new forend kept his tender fingers off hot barrels.
