Up until now I have only seen it stamped on metal parts. Others may have seen it on wood before...
However, the fact that the P in the diamond stamp is seen (now) on both metal and wood parts, it is almost surely the stamp of an inspector and not a contractor. We know of no contractor who produced both metal and wood parts of the Parker gun.
