My just purchased Parker VH 16 ga.
I want to thank all of you for helping me in this purchase. What surprised me when I picked up the shotgun was that it came with the original gun case really cool. The case is in good condition except for the shoulder strap and the case cover cap strap both need to be replaced. Is there any person or company that the Association knows that I could contact about doing the repair work.
Again thank you for all your help Web Heath 775-787-7612 |

I'm looking to have my Parker 12 gauge side by side barrels repaired. They are pitting. Any suggestions?

Bill, 'pitting' isn't always as bad as it sounds. A lot of us have Parkers with moderately pitted bores and we shoot them regularly. The only way to eliminate pitted bores is to hone them and this one act by someone who is a hobbyist is the cause of many ruined shotguns. My recommendation is to have the bores checked by an expert to determine if the gun is safe to shoot as it is.

You can call Keith Kearcher of Bend, Oregon. He makes magic on old barrels. He'll hone the bores if you want and to what degree you want it done unless it makes them too thin.
You will have the barrels back within a month or less. They guy is pretty darn fast, but I live just down the street from him and I go over to his shop and drop my guns off. He can even have the barrels re-engraved so the Parker name, etc looks new. He is an experienced Parker collector, but today he is "into" double rifles. You can google him, but if you want your barrels to look like new inside and out it'll set you back almost $600, but you'll have to ask him for exact quote. He can also re-choke as you please and change the chamber length. He is a genius with wood. I have taken guns to him that were borderline junk, then he waved his magic wand they came back like new, and I was then and am now astounded. I took my GH to him to have the works repaired. I discussed a re-do. He wouldn't do it, saying that the patina was perfect, showing wear and care that made the gun a classic. So he has integrity. If I had a headache I believe he could do brain surgery. He is very good. |
