Looking at 124947 photo the top where the rib extension was on earlier models, there is a void in the solder. Two questions: Are the barrels Trojan Steel and do all the serial numbers match? If not to either question, was a rib extension cut off the barrels?

This area just doesn't look 'right'.
Is the sn present on the side of the barrel lug? And, is it the same as the resst of the gun?

Hi Edgar,
The sn is on the flat of the barrels not the lug. There are a couple of things with this parker that I've been scratching my head over.
Thanks for your input.

With closer inspection, I've found that for some reason , someone decided to grind off the serial numbers off the side of the lug and restamp the barrel flats.
They also ground off the serial number off the water table and restamp the current number. so this Trojan is obviously a frankenparker.

Funny thing is , when I stripped it down to clean it, all the inside parts all have the current serial number as well the stock under the trigger guard.
