Default Parkers in Ireland

Does anyone know where I might be able to find any Parker guns in or around the Dublin, Ireland area? Any gun shops where they may be or a friend or acquaintance that may be willing to show and have the gun photographed. I going ther next week and thought it might make an interesting story for the Parker Pages.

I took a Parker to Northern Ireland once, but I never heard tell of one that lived there.

I'm sure there are folks who shoot vintage doubles on the Emerald Isle but when I was doing my gunning all I saw were Beretta over and unders or automatics.

I did hear of a gentleman who had a Purdey 12 gauge and a Tolley 8 gauge but never got to visit with him.
