Brian,
Looking at the bright purples, especially on the underside of the forend iron, I do not think that's bone charcoal case coloring. My vote is that it is original Remington era case colors. So as a stocker, how hard would you think it to be to reshape the forend slightly to make it look more Parker original, and add a steel insert tip? If it were my gun, that's what I'd probably want to do, in addition to adding a classic looking Silver's recoil pad.

I'm hard pressed to believe that's a Fajen stock. If it is, it's the best fit I have ever seen. If you're planning on keeping the gun, who cares; it's a nice stock. If it were my gun, I would have a Dog's head butt plate put on, which is more in keeping with a VHE 20ga.
I do have a fore end tip around here somewhere, but it's from a higher grade gun, and probably B or A.
