    True, but the ones that I've seen were so marked, like the various grades of the Santa Fe rifle series. I've got one that the PH ramp is well done on, but no provenance as to by whom. It's going back to stock one day.

    I really checked out the rifle today for any markings as who did the conversion. The front sight ramp is marked Parker Hale Englandicon. The magazine is marked, "Made in UaPa?, Expressly for Parker Hale Limited". Other than that no other details....I'm guessing it's a Parker Hale conversion.
