Second photo: Top left of barrel flat is WK, for long-time Parker manufacturing supervisor Walter King.
Small + sign above and below the barrel lug is according to TPS "not fully understood".
The 2 on the lug is the frame size.
The small g on the lug is also "not fully understood", according to TPS, nor is the Kf.
The 4 is the unstruck barrel weight.

Thanks very much. I hope others can offer suggestions to the "Not fully understood" items.
