You have the Model 1000 - to some folks this was the "standard" model.......far from standard they are, a good honest working rifle that looks & shoots just fine.
"Some folks" include Parker Hale themselves, who have always used the "Standard" description for the Model 1000 or 1000 Series.
It was the base model without some of the "frills" found on the 1100 and 1200 series.
As you say, they are great rifles.
I've owned and hunted with the early "Parker Hale Safari" rifles.
These were the Safari Standard in 30-06, Safari Deluxe in 243, and Safari Super in 270.
Later on Parker Hale used the description 1000 Series or Model 1000 for the "Standard", 1100 Series or Model 1100 for the "Deluxe", and 1200 Series or Model 1200 for the "Super".
