I have the same thing on my DHE 20 that I originally thought was due to the poor restock. The back part of the upper tang was proud on the wood and the trigger plate was not down flush at the back. I cleaned every thing inside and looked for burrs on the plate and action mortise. None. I put the plate in place without any internal parts in the gun and it's seated in the action cut firmly on the bottom. The right side is dead nuts flush as is the left EXCEPT for the last 1/8" or less on the trigger end. It looks like the action corner on the left side may have been damaged at some time and dressed down a little. The trigger plate protrudes about .025 on the corner when fully seated and I have about decided to live with it. I saw an ad on I think Guns International that showed a Parker with a "proud" plate along most of one side so I think these issues are from some heavy handed butcher/smith. Lee.
