1900 20Ga GH restoration
 

i purchased this Parker with the intent of restoring it. The pictures show the before and after. Duncans Gun Works of San Marcos, CA refinished the wood/checkering, action metal polishing and bluing. Dale Edmonds refinished the damascus barrels and added the ivory bead. Turnbull Restoration did the case hardening.

Now I just need to find the time to shoot her!

Will post more pic's later. photo files are too large!

Sorry,
Pictures did not upload.

Will try and post more pictures later.

You need to shrink the file to 60%

Hi,
Thank you for the suggestion. I am working on having the pictures reduced as I shot them in high resolution.

I will try to upload the pictures this weekend.

The attached link shows the original condition of the shotgun.

Mervyn,
That is an absolutly beautiful small bore Parker. That being said I bet I'm not alone in thinking that if I owned that gun I wouldn't do anything to it but shoot the heck out of it. I'm sure the craftsmen you mentioned did a great job and I look forward to seeing the after photo's.

i agree with Larry, very nice ! yes ,just shoot the heck out of it :shock: scott

I agree with everyone, what part do you want to restore, it's a great looking Parker.

Wow. Agreed also. Other than dismantling and cleaning, I wouldn't touch it. Not many are in that shape. Doesn't appear to have been used much.

I agree with the rest of the boy's. Leave it alone and warm it up as often as you can....:)
