Take an afternoon and run up to Covina. Let Jim or Jerry at Ivory beads look it over and they can point you in the right direction. Both Jim & Jerry are great guys and they have really good connections to get the type of work done that your gun needs.

Rick,

Let us see a picture! This is my fathers little Parker Trojan that he found under the Christmas Tree. All the blue that is worn off this gun was done by his hands and I would never hide his use of the gun. Depending on how yours looks you may just want to have the dent removed and enjoy the wear this Parker received from the hands of your grandfather.

Kindest, Harry

Paul, Harry & Bobby,
Thanks for the tips. I will talk to the guys in Covina and call Les Pittman. I don't need speed just want to do it right. By the way what type of loads do you guys use? Will get some pictures taken and post them soon.

Have enjoyed reading your forum and so decided to join. I am relatively new to shotguns but not shooting or reloading, and have recently bought my first double rifle..great fun.
I do have a question about Parkers and that is, did PArker ever make a hammer 10ga, in what models, and what are the current pricing for a shooter?
Thanks all in advance!!
Fred

Some of you guys asked for pics. Eventually we'll have before & after. For now here's the before. The guys at Ivory Beads said the gun is sound and easily restorable. I'm looking forward to it as my impression is those guys know their stuff.
