POW grip

[Kevin McCormack]

That would be Prince of Wales, as in Great Britain; I don't think there has been a Prince of Whales since Shamu died.

One man's opinion: http://www.sportinggun.co.uk/shootin...sh_Prince.html

My opinion is that it's just what the English call a half-pistol grip.
Some smaller bore Parkers had half grips. I'm pretty sure I've seen several .410s stocked that way.
Checkered side panels on a V grade tells me it's either been restocked, or it's hiding a pin that was put in to repair a split head.

Thanks Kevin,
I guess that is what we get for not reviewing our posts before submitting. Actually, my Grandmother Pickens came to the US from Wales as a young woman, and her father was a Welsh sea captain who sailed the Atlantic--the ships log is still in the families possesion. Edgar--that is what I thought!

What is the difference between a Ball grip and the POW?
