That gun is a special order for sure being a grade 2 and having a SSBP. The standard for a gun of that period would be a solid steel plate.

The steel grip cap is also very atypical for any Parker. I have only seen in on a few very high grade examples.

With some luck the research letter will shed some light on the build. Chuck B. has received my request.
The water table is not stamped for grade. It has the work order number and the barrel lug has the serial number and frame size.
I paid a bit too much, but considering my competition was keenly vested until the end, perhaps not.
There were 58 bids placed by fourteen participants.
