Depends on how much detail you need, have you looked at the FAQ section off the main www.parkerguns.org web page. Number 34 may fill your need. I suggest you look over others on screws and wood as well.
I have not read the book in question, I hope someone will chime in on that for you. |

Mr Gall:
I wonder why you want to take the gun to bits? A 20-bore in good condition is not something that a first-time home hobbyist should be learning on. In oher words, if you have never disassembled a boxlock double before, you should think twice about a Parker 20. Do you have proper turnscrews? Do you understand that screw slots must be cleared before you use them? Do you understand that the sears must be removed (tricky) before the buttstock can be removed? These are just a few of the considerations in stripping down a Parker. If you want to clean it, then the small fee for a professional strip-and-clean will be more than worth the outlay. |

The gun is in poor condition and needs a full restoration. The barrels are so pitted I need to make it into a 28ga most likely using Briley tubes, sleeving is to expensive. I have taken apart other doubles but I am new to Parkers. They all have their own special step by step ways of coming apart and going back together. I am not a trained gunsmith but I do have the proper tools. I also do engraving, so I am planning on giving it the full treatment.

Take a look at my Albums below...
These do not cover complete 100% teardown, but it is enough to get you most of the way there, or enough to be able to figure the rest out. If you have any questions, let me know. If you have the old style top lever mechanism with the flat spring and cam/lever, a common issue there is the bolt retaining screw being stuck. I usually have to end up drilling out about 25% of the ones I have to take apart. Also, the small retaining screw in the water table which is for removing the unhooking slide pin can be pesky. They usually come out, but a small eye glass screw driver is needed. Taking apart a Parker does not require any super specialized tools other than the proper run of the mill tools for gunsmithing. Just a proper sized pin for taking out the the hammers and springs. http://www.parkerguns.org/forums/album.php?albumid=307 http://www.parkerguns.org/forums/album.php?albumid=366 http://www.parkerguns.org/forums/album.php?albumid=365

The correct sized turnscrews are a MUST.

There is an excellent video on youtube on the breakdown and assembly of a parker receiver.
