Late Parker Remington GHE 20 ga.

[B. Dudley]

Some may be interested to know that this is the same Seller who was selling the "Museum Quality" 28g a few weeks ago that got so much chatter in the members only section of the board. There was a LOT of issues and questions about that gun. And the seller basically ignored many inquiries from people who asked questions of him through gunbroker.

I cannot comment much not he originality of the gun since I cannot easily say for sure one way or another...

But I will point out my thoughts on a few of the things mentioned already in this thread.

1: Yes, very nigh grade wood on low grade Parkers was very common in the Ilion made guns.

2: The fit of the buttplate should not be looked at too harshly as that can happen due to climate changes with the wood and moisture. A new plate can be fitted to a gun perfectly and 6 months later the fit can be off one way or another due to shrinking and swelling of the wood.

3: The lack of a mullered border is perfectly normal for an Ilion manufactured gun.
