Default The long and the short of it - an inside story
Just putzing today and temporarily ran out of things to do. I am intigued with the tiny parts inside a Parker hammerless frame. These are not seen unless you gain the nerve to tear down your Parker. So this Mother’s Day, I decided to compare the longest and shortest screws, coil springs and pins to while away a few more minutes of my day. Cheers Jack
PS. The grid in the pics is 1/4 inch squares

Jack, where does that small screw go, in the water table or beneath the top lever?

If we are guessing, I’ll say the top lever retaining screw.

And if there were a prize, Edgar would win. It is in the side of the trigger plate to limit the travel of the unhooking slide
