Jim,
This is a fairly common thing to have happen to a Parker.
The trick that usally works is as follows.
1. Make sure the gun is un-loaded.
2. Pull both triggers & drop the hammers.
3. Remove the forearm.
4. With one hand on the barrels & the other on the stock. Move the opening latch to the right and break the gun open.
5. If the barrels don't come off now. Try wiggleing them a little both side to side and slightly to the open & closed position.
If this doesn't work.
1. Close the gun again.
2. leave the forearm off.
3. Find the small round rod/pin that sticks out of the knuckle of the reciever under the barrels.
4. Pull the rod toward the muzzle end of the barrels while trying to open the gun as done in the previous steps. This should get the barrels to release from the cocking hook & be able to be removed.
If all this fails. Take the gun to a gunsmith that knows Parkers.
Good luck,
Paul
