Bill Z is correct in his response to you

Parker never marked their guns with a repair code, only Remington did that. Also I don't believe Remington would do repairs to Damascus barrels, only fluid steel. The list of Remington repair codes is found on the home page.

There are many letters, numbers, symbols on Parker guns we don't know their meaning. Don't get hung up on trying to figure them out. Stick with the ones that are known as shown on our home page and published in books.

Tom, that's interesting!

I was just reading through some correspondence from Remington that John Davis gave me this past weekend. Remington turned down many requests for repairs of Damascus barrels stating it was their policy not to repair them.

I'll scan their form letter and post it. I'll start a new thread.
