Its nice that there are craftsman out there that can bring something back to life so to speak. Take care of what you have so someone doesn't have to repair /refurbish it. These craftsmen are as rare as the guns they rejuvenate.

Beautiful. All that is missing is a Parker Pages article on this gun. Always great to see a good Parker rescued.
