I dumped a few woodcock this weekend with my VH 20 as well. The “Remington Era” guns are Parker’s manufactured or assembled after the Remington purchase of Parker.

True, Remington both assembled Parkers from Parker Bros. inventory of parts but also began manufacturing their own barrels, frames and woodwork too.

The history of the Parker shotgun is a rich and very interesting one.
For those who want to know it “all”, pick up a two-volume set of The Parker Story.
