And as Chuck will attest, it can be even more confusing in some cases because Parker Bros. often discounted guns for reasons that were not recorded and the lower than retail price can be misconstrued as a lower grade than what the gun actually is.
And, as well, a Grade 3 with Damascus barrels is shown in the Serialization book as a D3 and later when Titanic barrels were introduced (1897) it was shown as a TI3 (Not, as some believe, a T13).
