After reading the forum pages on this site for several years and quite a bit of searching I am looking to acquire my first Parker. I am not a collector but have really wnated one to hunt with. I have located a DH 12ga SN 115,641 for $1550 that is beat quite a bit. The stock is cracked completely thru the wrist, has an old repair but will need to be replaced. The receiver has no case colors remaining but the engraving is still very good. The lever is about center and bores looks pretty good with no pitting or rust. The action has a little play when locked up. Looks like a pear-shaped soldering spot about 3/4 inch long on the side of the right barrel. Not sure what that might be from as it seems like a strange spot for a repair. All the bluing is pretty much gone and quite a few spots exist where rust has been rubbed off. I know quite a bit of work is necessary but $1550 seemed like a decent price for a DHE, even with all of the work needed. Can anyone recommend a good gunsmith near Erie, PA who works on Parkers that can possibly take a look at this for me?

Thanks,

Mark
I just renovated one in similar conditions as yours, you can see work process in my albums of my profile.
