I agree that a V grade is the best value in a Parker, and add that a damascus G is also a great bargain. When Remington accountants reviewed Parker Bros pricing and cost of production, they determined that Parker Bros had been losing money on V grades for the several years preceeding the 1934 buyout.

I disagree that with a Trojan you get the same Parker gun as with any higher grade. You get a Parker but to me a Parker is all about the details, most of which are absent in the Trojan. You do get a quality gun. Its not the Trojan that made Parker Bros successful and famous.
