Or drop of comb at heel.




.

The nose of the comb varied with Parker Reproductions as well. Below are pics of a 12, 20, 28 and lastly a .410. It appears the height from the top of the grip to the point of the nose decends as the bore size decreases.

I think a bettter description is to refer these areas as nose of the comb and the heel of the comb. I think the lifter and top lever guns, for the most part, look very similar to the Remington Ilion made guns in their angled down cut at the nose of the comb. Most Meridan nose comb
shapes on hammerless guns just have a shallow parallel cut under the top of the comb as shown in many of your pictures.

I don't think it's that cut and dried Chuck. I see nuances that differ one to the other. "Similar" is about as closely as we can describe them and even that is too general.

Just my opinion.
