Default Gunsmith in Cleveland, Ohio

I've just acquired a 12 Guage Parker #216067. It's a 1926 DN (Grade 3) gun. I'd like to take it to a Parker knowledgable gunsmith. Anybody have a recommendation in the Cleveland, Ohio area?

If anyone would like to see pictures of the gun, I can post them.

I'll post pictures in the morning. Do you know an appropriate gunsmith in Northern Ohio or Western Pennsylvania?

DH...read the grade wrong (I'm just learning about Parkers). It has ejectors, but it's not marked DHE. Nice shape I think. Hasn't been fired in many years. I' just like to have it checked out.

Thanks, Paul. As a boy, my uncle in Kentucky used to take me bird hunting and allowed me to use his Parker. He always spoke of it reverently, and I've always wanted one. The gun I now have belonged to my father-in-law who was an avid trap shooter and hunter.

Both my daughters were born in San Antonio when I was stationed there in the Air Force. Nice town.

It's raining to beat the band here now. I'm getting off work at 8:00 am then have to fix my tractor for cutting grass tomorrow. Man I should have done it yesterday. Thats what I get for cleaning my parkers before my work was done.
