True "ball grips" were used on pretty much only hammer guns. Some very early hammerless guns also have a similar larger ball grip. Most uncapped pistol grip hammerless guns from the turn of the century forward had ball grips that were smaller or more of a half grip type. Understand what I am getting at?
Basically, hammer guns used a very large round knob grip than hammerless guns.
In my opinion, the uncapped pistol grip on hammerless Parkers is more rate than straight grip guns. Or at least less commonly seen these days.
