Original Colors?

or could it be a Remington era gun, which are known to have been made using less than strict parker bros. era specs?

The fore end looks more like the Remington, bull nose style, as opposed to the more slender Meriden style. Colors aren't what one would expect from Meriden either, but it might have been worked over in Illion.

or an old Turnbull restoration.

I didn't know that.

1939 Rem Parker:

At the risk of being a bit too picky..... Brian's picture sure doesn't exhibit the oil on water look that he is describing. Maybe he's describing the gun on the internet link. Of course the GB gun has new case colors. The question is "How did the Vulcan rib get on a set of probably original Parker Special Steel barrels?" The rib replacement is obvious because of the poor fit of the rib to the sub rib. That gun is a real temptation at the present price.

Check out the KelTec gun in the seller's past auctions. It has sold with no reserve four or five times, been relisted four or five times. How does the KelTec keep returning to the GB site?? How is it that the Parker had 19 bidders up to $3300 and the seller has it back on GB? If the gun were returned by the successful bidder, I would be contacting the second high bidder, but he apparently didn't do that. What is going on here? I have been dealing with GB for a long time, and this is a new one on me. This seller has wonderful feedback, so maybe he has just found a way to save GB fees on multiple identical guns by just hitting the relist button when he sells one of them. My take is that he may have had four or five KelTec .22s and legitimately sold each one.
