The only part of your Parker that I would consider to be not original parker are the barrels... likely to be Belgian replacements for the original Damascus barrels. I have seen several Belgian replacement barrels with ribs and breech wedges done in the same manner. The rest of it, aside from the cyanide colors, looks to be original early AH to me. I wouldn't put much stock in the size of the grade number and letter on the water table being of a different size... it all looks like Parker Bros work to me, excepting those items I've already pointed out.

I have to agree with Ray. Looks a lot like the work on several of my C grades.Nice gun that I would be happy to own it if it was priced right. Enjoy it for what it is
