Default Carved Stocks

Those beautifully carved and scalloped $250 grade Parker stocks seem to be confined to serial numders in the low thousands - perhaps the time before King joined the company.

Tear drop shaped "drop points" appear on $200 and $250 grade guns in the 3000 s/n range. The fore end checking pattern on these guns was designed to straddle the original cross slide fore end attachment, and remained essentially unchanged.

What is the s/n of the latest $200 - $250 - A - B grade with tear drop drop points?

What is the s/n of the earliest with fleur de lis?

These would be great inputs to Josh for "Parkers Found"

Best, Austin
