Hey friend, it can happen to anyone. I took a nasty tumble a couple of years ago onto my brick walkway while carrying my 1-frame, 12 ga GH with fishtail lever and beautiful Damascus barrels. In the case of falling down while hunting I have perfected the very athletic body roll so that some part of my face or body will come into contact with a tree trunk or rock outcropping instead of a Parker. I just can't explain why I couldn't execute such a manuver on my walkway. The gun suffered such damage that to repair it would cost nearly as much as the gun was worth before the fall. Dave Suponski saw the gun and can attest to my inexcusable clumsiness.

Dean, I wish I could blame it on a fall. The damn thing just slipped out of my hand. After spending the money for a complete refirbishing, I think it's going to sit in the safe for a while.

Stock fixers is supposed to be the best in the business from what I hear, but I spoke to the owner a few weeks back about a repair and he told me he was backed up about ten months. I would be glad to hear any other recomendations for stock repair. Thanks, Chris.

Angel, beautiful piece. Might as well start the healing process now...send it back asap, because all you are going to do until it's fixed, is beat yourself up every time you look at it. So sorry, George
