Although the description is a bit wordy and flowery in places, the major defect in the ad is that it doesn't clarify or even suggest that the gun was not only refinished, but modified from its original configuration while at the DelGrego shop. "reamed" is not an attractive term when applied to a $17,500 shotgun. The possibility of this gun being an original GHE skeet are very slim, considering the 28" barrels and over 7 pound weight. I am still pondering the "DE" designation. The "optical properties" of the wood are the most benign defects in the wording of the ad. I wonder what year the factory last reassembled a Parker? Since we are probably referring to the Remington factory, I can't imagine that the last Parker has yet been reassembled there. If some fat cat had a friend in the Custom Shop, he could probably have his Parker "reassembled" there tomorrow afternoon.
