I suspect they built more than they could sell given the economic conditions during the years of Skeet Gun production. My GHE Skeet sat in inventory for almost two years before being sold according to my research letter.

Rarity is not a bad thing when it comes to Parker's is it?

Very well said, My bet is that Remington lost money on every Skeet gun sold. Especially when you look at the quality that went into the manufacture. They did stay the course right up to the end. My hat is off to them.
Some of us are indeed fortunate, or just lucky.

My skeet guns are usually my go to bird guns.
