I picked this one up playing Gunbroker roulette (low ball bid that gets it). It is a low grade and was in bad shape with a cracked and crudely repaired stock, pitting and dents in the barrels, and a messed up action with one hammer screw missing. It made no sense to do much to it except the bare minimum to get it working and safe. Brian Dudley shored up the stock, repaired the action, generally cleaned it up and did some light honing to get the worst of the pitting out of the bores. The result is a very usable Parker which still shows its wear and history, but won't embarrass anyone's dog.

Thought I would share this for anyone with a similar old Parker debating what to do. This is a good compromise between doing nothing or parting out and a full blown restoration.
