Parker B grade stock
 

I recently bid on and won an “unknown gun stock”on ebay that I recognized from the photos to be from a parker B grade. I dont know what gauge or frame size. The serial number is 95640 can any one tell me from that.

Not in the book. Looks like a letter is not available either.

Iguess you'll know better what the measurements/frame size are when you get it.





.

Yes. I guess it doesn't matter too much since I don't have a B grade to attach it to but it seems in fairly good condition and for 30 bucks i figured what the heck

Did it come with the gold grip cap insert and the skeleton butt plate?





.

I wish it did. Looks like it had a recoil pad that is now gone and the grip cap is also gone. It would have really been a deal if the butt plate and grip cap were still there

I think it's page 527 in The Parker Story to see a chart of frame dimensions. If it is a certain size and condition, you could make a buck on it. Can we see the original ad or pictures? I need a #3 frame B grade stock and would pay a good price for one.

Bill knows that he meant to type “The Parker Story”...
Parker Pages only goes up to 48 pages per issue.
You can also find the same chart of frame dimensions re: frame sizes in the front of the “Serialization Book.”

Bill I will post pics and take measurements when it arrives. I was thinking I might trade it I have been looking for an english style 2 frame for a D I need to renew my membership

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.
