Forends are not gauge specific but they are frame-size specific.

230101 isn't in the serialization book, but 240101 is, and confirms your gun is as it left the factory. I'd go with the error theory.

Well either way I will enjoy it. Thanks everyone for your input.

Interchangable to a point but the engraving and checkering are grade specific.

Welcome Jeff.
Are there no choke markings on the barrel flats for this gun? Late Remington Parkers have chokes marked. Not being the sharpest knife in the drawer, I can't say conclusively that Remington always stamped the chokes on late barrels.
Sincerely,
Erick

I don't see anything that looks like a choke marking- what would it look like?

[Gunner]

Jeff,
Others can better reply, but look at bbl end of flats for abbreviations such as mod, imp, or skeet in, skeet out.
PS Up here we would say that is a wicked good deal.

Barrel Flats of a late production Remington Parker:

[QUOTE=Carl Brandt;123525]Barrel Flats of a late production Remington Parker:[/

yeah- not seeing anything like that- what I see on my barrel flat is what looks like a maltese cross (you can see it on the picture, left barrel), an x and an E also on the left barrel, you can just make it out in the picture- this site tells me it means this gun was manufactured - December 1936, and a barrel weight , 3 superscript 8 which I assume denotes 3 pounds 8 oz (you can't make that out in the picture but its there in the right hand barrel).

So- the only thing I can't figure out from the resources on this site is what the cross is.
