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.

Wisconsin Duck Hunter Switches To A Parker
I am coming down the back stretch as a waterfowler. Decided I would finish out my waterfowl hunting shooting using 100+ year old doubles. My English 1904 pigeon gun was a bit light at 7lb 3oz, and having always been a fan of Nash Buckingham (can't afford an HE Fox), so I decided a newer heavy gun was needed.
Upgrading by three years (hehe), I have just purchased a 1906 DH Parker with 32" barrels and a straight grip (like Nash's), weighing 8lb 4ozs. Since the gun has been restocked and I enjoy shooting over decoys, the right barrel is being opened to .009 and the left .017. Experience has showed this to be a good combo for me.
Having owned a number of Spanish doubles and one English, I am looking forward to getting back to shooting an American double.
I am enthusiastic about being a member of this site.
