Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Another example where the matting running off ended up not proving that the barrel length is altered. Book confirms 26" length. Providing it is accurate. Research letter would confirm.
Factory 26" barrels would add a little bit of a rarity factory to it. Just a little.
The colors on the frame are cyanide dip like the kind that DelGrego used to do. Cannot tell for sure if they would have been the shop to have done it or not. But it is NOT factory work. The top lever has been blued which is NOT correct. And it looks like based on your photos that maybe the forend latch was blued too??? but hard to tell with the lighting in the photo. And yes, the trigger guard blue is redone as well. There is some old oil or varnish on the gun's metal parts in areas that could stand to be cleaned off.
The gun is a 2 frame most likely based on the style of buttplate on it.

Brian, I have two 1 1/2 frame guns with that HRBP. It was also the style on the unfired VH shown here previously
3#8oz sounds pretty light for unstruck 2 frame bbls. Maybe Mr. Baker could get and accurate firing pin cl measurement.
