Default Latest Fishtail lever - Revisited

TPS states that the fishtail lever was used intermittently on parker Hammerless guns until about 1892. And I have seen several in the early years of hammerless production.

In searching the forum on the topic, there was a previous thread asking about the latest Fishtail lever. Two members said they had guns made in 1905 (130,000 range) that had them.

Does anyone else have an example of one even later than '05?


Dean mentioned seeing a BH before with one. Anyone else seen a higher grade gun with one? like an A or AA? Or even A-1? The A-1 was introduced in 1904, so, if there are a few examples in 1905, then I guess it could be plausible.
