Yes, your comments are the ones that have me scratching my head; primarily because of your profession and the number of examples that I’m certain have passed through your hands. Made me wonder if technically the “proper” way to obtain this dimension is to measure from the toe, but then, that would be the hypotenuse, which had me confused. I know a handful of individuals that deem a 14-3/4” LOP their primary criteria when perusing the Reproductions. Implication being, while not exactly “rare”, they are not typically encountered. For these folks, a 15+ lop would be a real find.
I’ve learned to never say never with all things Parker but I would have guessed that a 15” PR is pretty rare. I would have to guess that the stocks you have at 15 & 15-1/4” will find their way to some guns quick-like.
