Above statements regarding what is correct and not correct are true. I also want to add that the checkering pattern on the wrist is also not correct for any straight grip Parker. The pattern should wrap around the long guard. That pattern on there is more like what is seen on some Ithaca guns.
The BTFE looks to be the correct length. But... is the forend iron correct? Does it have the draw bolt? Also, what about a 1pc. forend loop? These are things we need to see in order to help figuring if the gun might be in any way correct?
Pete's lookup of the gun suggests that the gun did not have a BTFE originally.
