I remember the gold cap and screw on Dave Suponski’s BH fell out while we were shooting at Addieville. Dave was very upset and Danny said he would go back over the course and look for it. Danny came back about 20 minutes later with cap in hand AND HE FOUND THE SCREW TOO!! It was a wood screw, not a machine screw, and it was gold in color.

No gold inlay on the stock either. Another Parker mystery.

I removed the screw from the second AH with the gold grip cap and it is threaded. The serial numbers are very close.

Here's a mystery I have yet to figure out why. I have an AHE 20 with the gold grip cap but there is a large silver initial oval inletted into the stock with the original owners initials. Why the grip cap wasn't used is beyond me.

I remember that one Scott - it was a nice one and I was really tempted... if it had only been a 16..

One of one I’m sure Gary. Certainly a special ordered gun.

What is the frame size? I have a 1-frame C grade with 30” Bernard barrels with the same rib design highlights.
