Upgraded Parkers, Lesson 1

[Fishtail]

Really, one look at that gun and there is no need to look it up in the book. It's unfortunate a seller feels the need to refer to an upgraded V grade as an A grade but anyone spending $20K or more on a Parker should have enough knowledge to know it is not a proper A grade.

It would be like buying a 1976 Cadillac Eldorado and then being amazed to learn the bull horns screwed to the front of the hood are not OEM.

Good eye Mark. Also note missing forend loop on forend lug and no reinforcing screw through the front of the beavertail. You can get a hell of an original Parker for that price.
