Could not agree more with Craig's advice above. When all is said and done, you want your gun to look every bit as a Parker

I have taken a few liberties with bringing Parkers back to use. I like straight stocks, checkered butts, and almost 2 1/2" drop at the heel and about 2"-3" of pitch. My sweet cousin from South Carolina gave two of her fathers Parkers plus a set of #2 frame Damascus barrels. The 20 gauge VH had a chipped toe and the 16 VH was missing screws, cocking lever, stock and a few other things. I put it back together the way I wanted. Sherman Bell blew the barrels off a VH 12 to find if they were as strong as Damascus. In the process the stock was destroyed as well. As Sherman stated in his note to me, "If you want omelets you must break eggs." Again I brought this old girl back into action and it's my current wobble trap gun that consistently brings home the money.
