Put ATF on notice too if he won't release back to you

Briefly ....
I'm in Australia and it would seem no-one except this particular 'smith has EVEN seen a Parker, let alone worked on one.
'My man' is an ex Brit, who worked in the States for a while and saw more than a few Parkers cross his bench. ( so he says )
He has had more than a few problems of a non firearm nature, since landing in OZ and my gun is certainly a damn cantankerous b**tard .... ( single trigger issue )
Am due to contact him again for an update.

( double post )

A brief follow-up on how the repaired barrel is doing. I used the 28 gauge yesterday at my local gun club and it performed well. no problem with ejecting the hulls. as you can see from the attached photo, the upper barrel is my 28 inch that was repaired and the lower barrel is the 26 inch that was not repaired. The set screw that was added to limit the ejector travel can be seem.

If it was a true flat head screw it would look exactly like an extractor gun.

I was thinking the same thing, but i would get accused of nit-picking.

We are not trying to emulate extractor barrels. We are concerned with function only. Original stop screws are way too soft for this application. We use a hardened stainless steel screw, it is the only one to hold up to the pounding. the recess allows us to tighten it to maximum torque.

Is this a frequent problem with Repro 20's? To date I have not encountered this issue.
