John,
That’s a very nice looking and desirable Parker. It looks as though someone with a lathe made up a set of inserts that allow the extractor to lift the shell similar to the Chamber Mate inserts now available. I would think they are just pressed in as I see no signs of welding. If that’s the case you should be able to carefully tap them out. If you try this go easy and if they don't move easily have a gunsmith remove them. Good luck with that wonderful Parker.
