<br />In 1984, Winchester was contracted to manufacture a new Parker shotgun. The new SxS was a DHE model. These models were fabricated in Japan to original Parker specifications, and the reproduction was so authentic that most parts are interchangeable with the late Parkers made by Remington in Ilion, NY. On Sept. 17, 1999, a flood destroyed all remaining inventory, including parts and most of the factory records.
