Have you tried a lace-on boot for your gun? It should give you as much as 3/4" in length.
Your VH sounds like it is in original condition and gun stocks of 13" were made by Parker Bros by request. But on a 2 frame with 30" barrels it seems pretty unlikely that the 13" LOP is original.

Thanks dean - I shoot it normally with a slip on silicone boot, but might invest in a nicer leather pad that ties on, as most of my guns are a fraction short for me.
I agree - it's an odd stock length for the long barrels. That said, it clearly used to have a recoil pad attached - there are dowel marks on the butt - but I think it is the original stock length, or was shortened professionally. What sort of checkering on the butt do parkers normally have? This has simple line checkering
