Default Parker LOP

Where did Parker measure the length of pull from, on a single trigger gun?
I'm assuming it would be from an imaginary front trigger location.
Thanks, Dave

My Skeet VHE SG, SST with checkered butt, letters with no stock dims at all according to the Remington IBM card on it.

However, it went from Remington on Dec. 9th, 1942 to A&F where it was sold in March of 1943 and A&F measured the LOP at 14" exactly. I just pulled it out and measured it at exactly 14" from the middle of the butt to the inner radius of the bow of the single trigger.

I hope that answers your question.

Best, Dean

On an SST, the LoP is measured from the trigger. Wherever that trigger may be.

Which usually means that the length of a sst stock is longer than a DT stock.
