Right? No consistency whatsoever.. Forends are the same way. Nothing matches.

The checkered side panels do not look right to me, also the fit of the stock ,the gaps and is that glass between the gaps? not what I would expect of a AAHE.

The checkering and rest of the stock work on that thing are horrendous. Fully restored by DelGrego in 2013... huh... well, the proof is in the pudding.

The best part of that gun is the Case Colors. By the way...Turnbull colors their guns for them now.

Thanks to everyone for their input on the AAHE. The gun did not smell good to me so I must be learning..

It is a shame that such a beautiful Parker was so poorly "restored". In that condition maybe $50K?

I’m surprised DelGrego would let that go out..
