Occasional examples of uncheckered Parkers can be found in both hammer and hammerless eras, although uncheckered Parkers are more common in lifter action guns.
Uncheckered Parkers are common in lifter actions, uncommon in top action hammer guns and rare in hammerless ones.
I have never seen an originally checkered Parker with severely worn checkering that did not have some remnant of checkering left . Sanding off checkering will also always leave a depressed surface that is particularly noticeable on the forend.
