A) from your pictures and B) the book says code 2

I think I know where the OP is going with this.

The frames of all parkers were marked with the grade. In your case V or in later examples VH. They will not be marked VHE (on ejector guns). The guns were not marked in any way in regards to having ejectors. They just had them or didnt have them.

Ok, thanks, it's stamped vh so I was confused. It definitely has them, first time I cracked it open one of the snap caps flew out and scared the crap out of me. I appreciate all the help. I don't know too much about these old side by sides. I have 2 lc smith's and an AH Fox, a Spanish Derby and I love all of them but this parker is my new favorite. I am hooked. Now I want another one, lol

Thanks again ! Just saw your second reply.

So they are 28 inch barrels and family rumor has it the gun was refinished in 1958 by pachmayr. Then stored. Does that even sound right? I thought they made grips?

No, Pachmayr did not refinish that gun - sorry.

But this is just my opinion...

Ok, thx. Been trying to find some paperwork on it......

The "Book" shows 198300 leaving the factory in 1906 as a hammerless V grade, ejectors, capped pistol grip 20g with 28" bbls.

Thank you so much ! The members on here are truly the best.

Don't look for Pachmayr paperwork for the metal refinish. Maybe they freshened up the wood.
