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.

Well, at least he didnt pay much for it("cheap, real cheap"). I see no reason why it wouldnt shoot, so would make a good rainy day/ beater gun. Or good project gun for someone who wants to try a little "gunsmithing education".

Never give up on a Parker. Two or three new floor
plate screws, a couple of cheek panels laminated over that great carving, lots of walnut dust mixed in with glue and checkering filled, recut forend checkering and two new pistol grip panels cut and finish the wood yourself and a nice five yard gun on the cheap.
I sold a favorite Remington Parker VH because someone got carried away and screwed the checkering and then went deeper so that the stock was flat on one side of the grip. When I next saw the gun the checkering had been filled and recut and one could not tell it had ever been anything other than factory.
I buy the same junk because it is a challenge.
