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.

This excerpt taken from a recent article in Sporting Classics Daily. Could this be the answer?

That is not the hole that is referenced in this thread. Those holes are the ones on the bottom inside the action that are used to help remove the hammers and mainsprings from the action.

No no no, you use grease not oil.......
Sorry too many 1911 discussions about the proper method for cleaning a lubrication. Don't make me threaten to hard chrome a parker for rust prevention when carrying it in a humid environment
