I should have clarified my response by saying after original production, then being returned for a Parker vent rib addition; like what was being discussed.
I do have one of those transitional guns like Reggie was showing, which was made in 1934, just after Remington took over. It does have the sharper V and the inscription on the top of the rib. At first I thought it might be one of the guns returned for a vent rib because it has so many codes on the barrel flats, but the book has it as a 23 extra code, so it had it when it left the factory. So, some of this other stuff was probably done later like the "no safety", large forend and single trigger. Choked skeet/skeet, but not marked that way on the barrel flats. Just a VH 12 gauge.
