Mr. Bain has been at the Baltimore gun show since about Friday. I have no idea whether he is in contact with a Parker Repro mechanic. However, when buying an unfired thirty year old gun, things get bound up in grease. I would go to a mechanic rather than to the salesman after all this time.

I totally agree with the honorable Mr. Murphy. I've known Roger for a few decades and truly consider him a gentlemen and of the upmost in character. Good luck with your Parker, Charles. You picked the right guy to buy your gun from.

Mr. Bain has his own Gunsmith that he uses and given the gun came in this condition, it would seem appropriate for him to resolve the problem. I certainly apprec:)iate his willingness to do so
