Thank you all for your replies.....
I knew there was improvement to the hinge pin design and finishing at some point, just didn't know when that occurred. So thanks for that detail Dean, although maybe you'll have a different answer for that question in the future considering Mark's gun.
And thanks Brian for confirming the pin in my gun is period correct for that era of Parker's as you have examined my gun first hand.
Though I'd hoped my post would have generated some discussion on the other points in it, at least it revealed for Mark that his gun may hold some significance in the timeline of Parker redesigning the hinge pin.
