I hope it looks as good as the pictures. The fellow that i am purchasing it from just had the firing pin replaced . It seems that it would not fire all the time. The gunsmith told him that someone replaced the firing pin with a screw that had the end filed down to look like the pin. What was the first year that Parker built the SBT?

Dave,

Sorry about beating your friend to the phone. It appears that this SC was around the 255th built buy a quick count in the serialization book. Does any one have a earlier serial number?

Dave,

Your starting to scare me! Do you look these facts up or do they just pop out of your head.
