That puts a whole new shine on this gun. A PGCA letter would create more interest in the gun.

Oops. I forgot; He also told me on the phone yesterday that it has a "V" on the table, indicating the bbls are original to the gun I assume.

Ooops... now that puts a whole new "shine" on this gun. By all appearances it is a Grade 2 or G and the G should be stamped on the water table, the "2" above the serial number and the "G" stamped below the serial number. I'm not aware that Parker Bros would alter the grade stamp when fluid pressed steel barrels were fitted. Even when a buyer requested upgraded engraving or the absence of any engraving at all the grade stamp remained the same to the best of my knowledge.

Gotta get a letter on this gun!!

Does your description of "the table" mean the flat of the receiver or the flat of the barrels. A "V" would be common on the barrel flat. A "V" on the receiver flat would definitely be unusual.

Just called Charley. The V is on the bbl flats not the table. He's going to send me pics of the flats and the tables to show all the stampings and I'll post them here.

Finally got a pic from Charlie of this G grade. Anyone have comments on the stampings? What's with the V between the lugs? And Kf... ?

for what its worth i think the gun would be in the 1500.00 range. nice gun but money is tight right now... charlie

I agree with Charlie, once the benjamins come out..... $1500-1750.

A $40 letter would add more than $40 to the value of the gun.

A nice G Grade with Damascus barrels just sold at RIA for $875 inc. buyer's premium, but I think $1,500 - $1,700 for this gun is about right. Like Bill said, spend 40 bucks on a letter. A letter increases the value by multiples IMO.
