Finally! Pics of my gun

Interesting . . . a grade 4 Parker has five birds on the floorplate - a grade 3 has four birds on the floorplate - but a grade 2 has two birds. For such a rigid engraving motif, e.g., the number of birds for the particular grade you would think there would be some clue as to why - but I don't understand it.

Dean there are forces in the universe that we arn't meant to understand and the number of birds engraved per grade is just one of those things we are left to ponder for eternity. At least we can ponder these things with some Old #7.

Not to put too fine a point on it but.....this C grade has 5 birds.
