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.

Dean,
the research letter only listed it sent back in 1913. Nothing on 38. Could this explain the high variance from the original listing of pistol grip, no safety?

There is almost never any information available, even from Remington, about what service a Parker went back to Remington for.
It would be very difficult, if not impossible, to say when it may have been changed from its original configuration to that of today's without actual documentation verifying the change.
