Maybe we can get a professional engraver to estimate the time involved in engraving a V Grade Parker.

Yes Bill that will be interesting. The one with less is a 1907 and the other is a 1914 and is also a little deeper. The screw slots are also deeper on the 1914. Had a 16ga that I sold but never noticed this until I laid these together. Gerald.

I would also expect one would find some variation in the fine line and flourishes that are in spots of a VH gun as well. Areas such as on the top lever and nose of the frame. These features would also be subject to variation over the years.

I just looked at my Father's 1901 12-gauge VH and my 1930 20-gauge VH and they are very much the same. I have seen a few VH-grades with a few more flourishes than normal, and have heard them referred to as Friday afternoon guns. As in do a few more flourishes on this gun rather than start another?!?

A better alternative to Miller Time guns, the guns finished on Thusday afternoon!
