Parker Safeties

[Dean Romig]

I agree with Mr Early. I have a 1923 Trojan (202066) with the old style of safety and I think you'll probably see the leftover early safeties more on the lower grades of Parkers.

I'm a fan of the old style, probably because that is what I grew up with, 145522 VH I much prefer the pull back. It's all second nature to me and I fumble a bit with a different style. I guess there was "new and improved" even back then. Sometimes it's just new. Cheers, Jack

I agree.

The new style is much less reliable with cold hands, and also for shooters with other difficulties with numbness of the hand and fingers. I like the bumblebee or junebug safety like on Purdeys. My in process project gun has this type of safety.
