Tom, your re-patriated Parker is a standard, bottom grade gun, and all Parkers were well made. A research letter can be had for many Parkers through this site's home page ( $40/60) . Research of the Parker records may reveal that this was one of a shipment of many to Japan, or it may merely state that the gun was shipped to some dealer somewhere. You won't know without a letter. Parkers ended up all over the world.

This is the first Parker in WW II Japan I have heard of, but I am by no means an expert.
