My second Parker - G grade

[B. Dudley]

The extension has had some work done at one time. Likely it came loose and had to be re-attached.
The screw being a bit off is something that i have seen before. Even on guns that have no evidence of work being done.
The extension was soldered and screwed on after the barrels were assembled. The screw head was dressed down flush as to eliminate the screw slot. And then everything was matted together.

I suppose that with shooting, the screw can gradually work its way loose. Fixing it would be pretty involved.

good looking gun...i would not let those things that are notproper and shoot enjoy the gun.....charlie

Definitely keep it if the price is right.
You'll be kicking yourself for years if you let this one slip by.

The price felt right at the time of purchase. $750 + $40 shipping and insurance.

Is it a 12 or 16? If a twelve, a nice price for a solid graded shooter, if a 16, just decide you dont like it, and lateral it over to me!!

It's a 12. Sorry.

You wont get hurt at that price--but does depend how much the "fixes" you want will run you.

The only fixes I'd elect to do will be the pad, and maybe the safety. The extension seems sound, and the barrels ring all the way along their length.

The pad is something I normally do myself, but not in this case. I do not want to screw up the wood, and that peak is a challenge for me as well.

The safety is not a problem, but it is unusual to my muscle memory not to have a safety to disengage when ready to fire, and I prefer low variability (consistent operation).

I love the checking pattern, especially on the knob. I think you got a nice gun pretty cheap. If it were mine I would ask Brian to put a pad on it and fix the safety. You made a good buy. You’ll be very happy when that pad is on there. It will change the whole profile of the gun. If you keep it, spend the $40 to get s letter. If you decide one day to sell it, having that letter will be of help and will add value.
