Hmmm...

Lower edge of the checkering has been buggered by someone who thought he wanted to practice becoming a checkerer...

Yes i saw that. Thought it would be easy to fix or at least make less noticeable. .

Sorry, I meant to refer to the frame size chart in The Parker Story, page 527 if I recall correctly. The "chart" doesn't seem to give a reading on the width of the stock at the frame, so I went to the dark side and decided to measure some frames with an actual Vernier caliper. The #2 frame is about 1.800 inches, the #3 frame is about 1.890 inches. I hope I remembered these figures correctly while I walked up the stairs to the computer. Tell us which you have, unless it is a smaller frame.

Good luck finding your straight grip #2 frame stock. I need the same in C or D for my CH two barrel set.

Yes. I hear that. Ive been looking for years. But the search is part of the fun

Brent, post the width of the stock. Thanks.

Bill, Will do when it arrives. Not due until Tuesday

Received B grade stock
 
The stock I Purchased arrived today. It turned out to be a #2 frame. Upon close examination there is a repair to the wrist which is visible but seems strong. The poor checkering was an attempt to further conceal the repair.

Thanks for checking.
