Not quite so...

The purchase and sale of the Parker gun works officially took place on June 15, 1934.

Several Parkers finished after that date have Parker Brothers features and identifiers.

Case in point, the “transition” guns with no makers mark at all on the exterior of the frames.

In response to the previous information have attached photos. “Parker Bros” is stamped as the maker. And some of the other engraving is exhibited. Can I say this was a “pre-Remington” gun?

Also, the name of the original owner is engraved on the stock as seen. Would this have been done at the factory or after it was delivered? Thanks
