Barrel Flat markings

[Bob Dombeck]

Is there an area here on the forum or in printed form where the known barrel flat markings are described and explained if possible?
I know people will post their own inquiry about a certain barrel mark here on the forum but is there a place where I can find these explained and all together instead of having to search individual threads for explanations?
I'm interested in any such markings even if there is not a known explanation for a certain mark or stamp.
Thank you.

Thanks Brian. I made a note of the various charts in the Parker Story and what pages they were on etc. I thought maybe this info. was on the site some where.

Have you followed any of the links on the left side of the PGCA main web page? Lots of information can be found there. I think it may hold what you' are asking for.

Thanks Robin,
I did look there but didn't see a bunch of different barrel flat examples, just the basic frame size samples etc.

So on my 2 frame Damascus GH there is a small "6" to the left of the #2 on the barrel lug. Is this an unknown marking?

[Dean Romig]

Yes, significance unknown.
