William, Have you seen any Woodcock down your way yet?

Don't know how to post photos, not to computer literate, wrong generation! Pouring rain this AM. Son and I shot 8 and left early for ball game. How do you clean and dry a soaked Parker? Bill

Charlie, I was shooting #6 Bismuth NO-TOX in the 20 yesterday. Raining so hard this AM I had to use the Remington black gun. Son and I shot 8 and quit early for a ballgame. Don't know what I'd do if one of the Parkers got soaked, how would you dry it out and clean it? Don't think I'd be comfortable taking it apart. Bill

No Woodcock yet, don't get them this close to the coast till a good hard freeze hits. I'm just north of White Lake next to the reserve in Vermilion Parish. With the front coming thru tonight, It'll be 34 degrees , getting close. Bill

Wipe the outside dry first. Remove the forend and wipe dry inside Remove the barrels and wipe dry Wipe the frame dry Now a light coat of oil wiped over all metal Clean the bores with a final pass of light oil You can also spray the action with light oil and let it run out with the butt stock propped high and metal resting low. Cheers, Jack

Thanks Jack, I'd be worried about water in the action with resulting rust and crud. Do you know of a water displacing spray that wouldn't gum up the action? It rains hard and often here . I used a composite stock Remington this morning because it was raining so hard. Guess I just like to baby the Parkers. Bill
