My very first Damascus gun was a G-grade Lefever ( back in the early 90s) and the nicest American double I've ever handled was a C-grade Lefever in 16 with B-grade engraving.

They can be exceptionally nice guns.

I agree that my GH Parker is a better gun than my O grade L.C. Smith. And thank you for all of the imput I had from my post asking that question.

I bought my GH Parker from the Nosler gun store in Bend Oregon in 2011. At the time I was led to believe that the gun was a garden variety Parker. Now, and after a decade of reading about it I have deduced that it is a much better than that. My question is, is my GH a midgrade Parker?

Your GH is the highest of the low grade Parkers. A DH is the lowest of the high grade Parkers.
