Acier Krupp means the barrels are made of Krupp steel. Acier means "steel" and is not a company. Krupp steel was used on many brands of gun including American guns. There may be another name on your gun or there may not be. By the way, Parker production has been suspended since about 1942. When we suggest you get a letter on your gun (a good idea) we mean that you should request a letter from this organization, PGCA, by accessing the area of this website that offers that service. Parkers are less valuable in Europe than in the USA, but your gun with its modern barrels, probably installed at the factory, is a gun of interest.
