I would guess that the guy who wanted "no grooves" in his forend saw pictures of the grooves in an ad rather than an actual gun with a grooved forend. Mills, I have a feeling that you could make a grooved forend from a standard single trap forend.

I think Bill is correct about the grooved forearm. And I believe the reference to a premium pad is generic in nature. In other words, whatever pad Parker had in stock at the time. If they referenced a specific brand, then it was probably by specific request of the customer. Just my uneducated guess.

I wonder if a Premium pad would be in reference to a price of the best pad offered?

Every time I see photos of the records, I marvel that Chuck can read them and report to us what is written. Once again, thanks, Chuck for your good work.

I would not alter an original. I would not be surprised if one is out there somewhere, or was and got altered

Here you go Mills. Take the one offered above and have it grooved.
