If you have The Parker Story, look on page 158 to learn about the repair code.
In general, it is a letter code that indicates when they worked on the gun but does not indicate what was done. From what I read in TPS, Remington stamped their guns with this same code during the final assembly phase of their gun manufacturing process. They didn't do this with the Parker gun during manufacture but they did use the codes on repair work done on Parkers.
The repair codes should be found on the barrel flats, usually on the left. Sometimes, but not always, a '3' suffix is found on repair codes.
