You didn't clear anything up. I just don't understand how my 16 is categorized as a grade 1, with no engraving, and your 16, with engraving is categorized as a grade 0. Both were 70 bucks too. These are the mysteries of Parker that others speak of.
I'm not sure I can shoot as well today, as I used to, but I could shoot pretty well with almost anything at one time. Same with my dad. I wasn't ever an Ad Topperwein, but not bad for a country boy.

Austin is correct on grading Parker hammer guns by the sell price... the only problem with that (and he told me himself) is that some guns were discounted and the amount of the discount wasn't always recorded in the books - just the sell price.

Sometimes the type of barrel steel is a clue as to grade... but also not entirely reliable.
