Vh 28

[John Taddeo]

When I can (I dont want to wear out a welcome ) I will be sure to ask if the guns they have seen with this configuration have a common denominator.

[John Taddeo]

I will tell you they were in no way surprised to see this style of lettering. Beats me.

[Dean Romig]

Please let us know what you learn regarding this.

[John Taddeo]

I most certainly will.

I did speak with the Delgregos on the relevance of the lettering on the frame of this vh 28 and what they told me (I will give the gist of it ). The denominator here is the guns they have seen were "side door or back door" guns that went out in a non-normal process(such as perk to supplier and\or favor to a friend). I didn't ask if the Vh was the only grade to which they have seen this or if some of these guns may have been used to fill orders at another date. They did say that this lettering is connsistent with what has been seen in the past. That is the gist of it.

You should get a PGCA letter on this gun as soon as possible. It could be interesting. I wonder if that could be a stamp of some sort. I've never seen one like that, but I'm a bit late to the Parker game.

[John Taddeo]

Bill, Im thinking thats a great idea. Lets see where this gun has been. Myself and two shorthairs already know where it will be going.

[John Taddeo]

The only other point that another gentleman, whom looked at this gun, made to me after looking at the letters was. In his opinion by looking at the cut angles of the lettering that they had been made prior to any surface hardening. I am not wanting to solve the Kennedy assasination , I was just thinking its a pretty interesting little grouser.

[John Taddeo]

I checked and a letter is available, so lets see where that takes me.

Interesting grouser (?); I think it should be practically perfect!!! All the kids I pal-ed around with in Spencer, Iowa all shot their first rooster with a neighbor lady's 28 VHE. It was her 16th year birthday present.
