Drop points are wrong - It is not an original Repro stock.

While I agree it does not appear to be a stock supplied original to a Parker Reproduction, I think the drop points are very ‘English’ in style, and rather than say they are wrong, it might be better to say they differ from ‘original Repro’
(That seems like a contradiction in terms)
Honestly, I like the grip treatment very much, and while Dean won’t give the stock maker credit for his drop points, I would certainly give him credit for an otherwise nice job.
