The "3" in your picture is not a frame size marking, it is a grade marking. The frame size marking is on the bottom of the rear barrel lug.

IT's getting so now I rarely see an 8 or 10 gauge hammerless Parker I don't like

And this one is certainly no exception !

First thank you all for your replies and kind words. Hopefully this is the correct picture of the frame size. Also I have a picture of the oval metal plate on the bottom of the stock. What is the purpose of this?

On any of the guns I have with a plate there or have seen , were typically engraved with initials .
