Yes Dean, i would agree with that from a standpoint of logic. Every Parker was fitted with a lock screw on the hammers. And they are positoned at 90 degree angles from each other. And the very few examples I have seen on a lock on the tang screw, it is in the same fashion.
I would not expect Parker to deviate from the norm in a different area of the gun. I do however think it would look better if both were in line with eachother.

What nobody likes the random untimed lock screws on John Browning's A5? I give it a pass since its not a double but I have to say it drives me a little crazy when most gun screws aren't properly timed. Might be a little OCD but I even try to time outlet cover screws in the house!

Lock screws aligned with the larger screw are not the easiest task to make perfect. I remember a Becker Fox pictured in the DGJ that I used as an example for my gunsmith, Mr. Vicknair, that I would not find acceptable. He came through with flying colors and made the screws not only perfectly sized and aligned, but almost invisible.
