I heavily debated upgrading the gun to a C. Unique for sure since C grade repros were not made. I considered this more when I was going to checker the stock as I wanted to put down a C pattern on the wrist. But decided to stick with keeping it a D. And at that time I was not completely sure that I was going to do the engraving embellishment.
The major difference in the engraving motif would have been the addition of more border work on the side panels. It would have required having to wipe out a lot of the original engraving on the sides to give room for the borders.
It certainly can be done, but I was wanting to maintain is as an example of what can be done with the factory D platform.
I also considered doing the "Parker" name in gold to set it apart. But also decided against that.
