I am not 100% sure of the thread size of the galazan straight grip Parker guards, but I can tell you that they are NOT 100% Parker correct. They have a shorter tang that the original guards, the bow is a bit more rounded and the shape of the back of the tang is a bit different. The biggest thing is the length. For this purpose, they would never work as a replacement, but they make ok options for fresh starts.

The guards are in the white and roughly polished. The screw holes are drilled, but not countersunk.

I was able to thread one into an old Parker hammer gun without an issue.
