That’s a good problem to have!, and not surprising.

I called Mr Delgrego and had a good conversation with him about my Parker guns needs. Larry took time and answered my questions and we talked Parkers, it was refreshing. I could sense no rush, hurry or distractions as we talked. He told me what to expect and the proper repair methides and approx. costs. I feel good about sending my Parker to Larry....SXS Ohio

Larry did great job on my 20 gauge Skeet 3 years ago and got in back in about a month.

Hey, Kenny, I got a ballpeen hammer--just give it a few licks to tighten it up!!
(just kidding guys!)

Harold is not too far off the mark. The old english method was to upset the metal with a cross peen hammer. If done properly there is no evidence of work being done with the exception of the gun being tight again.

Harold...I shipped the gun to Delgrego this morning, if all goes well...this gun will be at Hausmann's....This is one of the old ones, there is magic in them tubes! (-: Kenny
