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.

Yes, case color is the result of the heat process used to harden metal. It is easy to remove case color just through normal use of the gun. That is why its a sought after attribute when purchasing a Parker, so few Parkers have original case color today because Parkers were enjoyed in the game fields and shooting ranges and the case color was worn off.
If it has a lot of case color, look for a gunsmith that not only fixes Parkers but one that is also knowledgeable in restoration too. "Maybe" a good restoration man knows some secret that can bring it back to it original glory; but I am just guessing as this is way outside my knowledge base. It can't hurt to ask even if it can't be done, one never knows maybe it can? It also may be cost more than it would be worth.
