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.

8 gauge
My wife inherited an 8 gauge parker from her grandfather and would like to know the approximate value with the thought of selling it. The research letter describes it as a Parker shotgun, serial number 60xxx ordered in Pendleton OR on Nov. 10, 1890. According to Parker Bros. Order Book No. 27 it was a Quality 1 Top Action hammer, 8-gauge. It featured Plain Twist steel barrels with a length of 34 in. Its stock configuration was a pistol grip. The chokes were patterned RH(115#4 pellets in a 30" circle at 45 yards) with the LH being the same. According to stock book No.21, its specifications were:Length of Pull: 14 1/4", Drop at Heel: 3 1/4" and Weight 11 pounds 11 ounces. the price was $95.00
Factory return and repair records do not exist which is not suprising since the gun has been in storage for sixty years and probably didn't get much use prior to that.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Jack Brady
