Default VH Production

Here is a VH production table.

Shorter barrels became more common in late versus early production guns.

Production records that I have seen show that most V grades were produced in lots for sale to major distributors, although records also show that any Parker could be special ordered. I know of no evidence showing otherwise for 26" barreled guns.
I am sure that some 26" barreled Vs were special order, and since almost 2300 were made, that many were not. I also think that since so few were made from 20 to 25" in 12ga , that those were all likely special order.

The below table is from The Parker Story, a necessary reference book set for any person with interest in the Parker gun.
