Serial Numbers

[Rich Stearns]

I have noticed that the serial numbers on Parker guns don't have the same Font. Did the engraver who did the gun use his own font? Can you tell the engraver by what the serial number looks like? Were serial numbers done in gold and other colors? By the way I cn't load any pictures to the site now.

There were 243k guns made over 70 years. The number of people engraving the serial number and even variations in generational style was high in 70 years.
