Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

A pair in a Faux Gator case !
My wife has her Bridge Club here today....so a good time to go upstairs. Started doing some dusting on the cased guns. Parker #44894..16 gauge..Shipped to W.C. Hodgkins ..New York..on May 1, 1885...28"/Twist..It is an "O" frame with the lightening cuts in the receiver. Choked F/F. Returned October 29,1894 by Brown and Sellers of Holyoke, Mass to make triggers pull harder. Cost was $1.00...The L.C. Smith is #170151..1912..Field grade 16 gauge..28"..M/F..The Parker is untouched, and I think the color was done on the Smith.I had a faux alligator English case relined for them.I'll let my Grandsons figure who gets what...

You did a good job. I saw no dust. 
Very nice pair of hammer guns!
