If you had the first three numbers of the gun SN it might be a clue that the gun is a Remington gun. When Remington bought the Parker Gun Co. they did not buy the Parker Bros. name. Therefore, they could not use it. So some guns from Remington came out with no side of the receiver engraving and some came on the market with Parker engraved on the underside of the receiver. I have one of them. Lately on this forum there was a discussion of this issue and several guns from the Remington era were shown to have the underside engraved with the Parker name.
