Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Grade 2 production started in 1875 before the grading system was adopted, and it sold for $80 (80 Dollar grade). As Parker introduced the named grades, they named Grade 2 guns E, F, G, H, EH, and GH. The GH and EH describe Grade 2 hammerless Parkers, and the other names describe Grade 2 hammer guns. These names were based on various gauge and stock configurations. It was a popular gun for the owner who wanted a gun with more adornment than the average gun and was willing to pay about $20 more for a gun that looked better and was well-balanced. The Grade 2 had a higher quality of American walnut which has some figure. Most Grade 2 guns have Damascus or Parker Special Steel barrels. They were significantly better engraved than the lower-grade guns. Quail, ducks, snipe, and woodcock are common figures in the engraving of the frame sides and bottom; the forend latch and screw heads are also engraved.

The checkering was deeper and finer than lower-grade Parkers. After about 1880, the hard rubber dog's head butt plate and a white metal shield behind the lower tang became standard on the Grade 2. Because of the added embellishments, it was very popular with Parker customers. Ejectors were an option on GH grade. These guns with ejectors (GHE) are desirable to collectors.
