It seems, after all the examples shown here and the opinions expressed, that the description of the type of pistol grip a gun was made with really didn't have an official name as would have been dictated by the front office but rather were described by the stockmaker or the person actually recording the gun's manufacturing specs...
Would it were that were otherwise.
