This looks to be a new gun that was built for Remington by CSMC. Indicated by the P serial number.
These guns were only made in AA grade and 28g and the price was $50,000 new. As far as I know, only about a dozen were made and maybe half that actually sold.

These guns would have been made within the last 20 years.

Yup, I bought $200 worth of tickets for the RGS drawing on one… Nope I didn’t win it.
They are awesome guns!!

It's unfortunate the OP took down the pics, one can hope it was not for deceptive reasons following the identification of a modern replication.

78CJ, nothing deceptive about the shotgun or taking it down. my perfered shotgun is a A.H. Fox, so i am not that familuar with parkers. one collector i spoke to advised taking down the post because he said i would open the floodgates to comments about it being altered/upgraded, etc. which it is not. this is a firearm that our company acquired from a manufacture in ilion, ny. out of their archives. i was personally involved in the deal, so i know the back story. at some time she will be going up for sale and i can repost.
rod. thank you for your interest, and again not meaning to offend/mislead anyone, at this point just trying to learn.

Rod, very interesting that another one of these guns has surfaced. Years ago I got a call from the son of a member I had done a lot of research on Parker 28 gauges with, who had won an identical gun at either a Ruffed Grouse Society or Ducks Unlimited fundraising dinner, can't remember which. It turned out that the IRS had record of the raffle and tracked him down and hit him with a very hefty excise tax which he couldn't afford to pay at the time, so he was forced to sell the gun. I have no idea of where it went or to whom.


Remington had donated the gun to the raffle, but I don't know if it was a Remington-made version or a CSMC version. He called me before the announcement that CSMC would be making the gun(s) for Remington. The gun you showed may be a prototype gun made by Remington and entered into their research collection at the time it was made

I also recall that PGCA raffled off an identical gun which may or may not have been built by Remington. Other members here probably have better information as to its origin. They are indeed beautiful pieces of work!
