Thanks for the comments, keep them coming.

Pardon the poor focus, I'm using a manual lens on a DSLR and getting the two to work together can be a challenge.

Truthfully I haven't measured either. I bought the gun as an heirloom/collectible and its fit for shooting wasn't a consideration. I will, however measure those tomorrow and post them here. Those are things I should know about this gun but don't. Thank you for asking.

A few more pics I haven't yet posted.









The last two show a flaw in the wood. I think it was created when put back together. It is difficult to see but a small piece is pushed up where it meets the frame. I'm not sure what I can do about it. It can't be pushed down as the frame is in the way. Suggestions welcome.

Is the choke noted on the flats somewhere?

Finally got around to it Scott, LOP is 14", DAC 2" and DAH 3" I may be off an eighth or so with either of the drop measurements but that's pretty close. Thanks for asking.

My gun was advertised as a "D" grade, is there a difference between the "D" and "DH"? I'm familiar with the E meaning ejectors but I didn't know about the plain "D" and I didn't find it referenced in the Parker Identification section. Thanks in advance.
