Does anyone know if barrel lining is still available? What happened to Teague?

Drew, Who did the work on the first set of barrels, the set that was tig welded? Excellent job.

By the way, what was this thread supposed to be about?

Spoken as a true Savannahonian, BTW Mills is that great old bording house still in business in Savannah. The name escapes me but was it : Mrs.-----? Great food served family style.

P.S. I believe that the thread originally had something to do with Parker shotguns and Brad Bachelder restoring them.

Best Regards, George:bigbye:

Mrs. Wilkes . . . yes it is. Have not been there recently, but it is good. Paula Deen is overrated.

Dennis in another life you must have been a diplomat since I find your comments well intentioned but perhaps insensitive to those of us who still believe in the lost cause. I know the Gettysburg address has become part of the American iconography but to me it will always be Picketts charge that pulls at my heart.
I think Parker shotguns, appreciation of history, and love of this great country are very much intertwined. Thank you Dennis.

Paul ,Thanks for the reply ,I know Brad has been working barrels at the present ,I am having my 28 Case Colored , a new Pad fit wood refinish etc. , I would have never done anything to a gun such as this except ,it had already been Recased and wore a Kerrs of Beverly Hills Pad , Brad is fitting an correct Original Period Spurred Pad which I am certain will be much nicer ! Just figured If you happened to have a tour of Brads shop or a look around since we are all PGCA Members ,Brad might have given you a look at some of the other Parkers in house ! Best ; Russ

I became a confederate sympathizer during the Clinton years and remain one today :)

Steve Bertram became the US representative of Teague barrel lining about 2010, but it's my understanding that there were problems with bonding the liner to original barrel and the service is no longer offered http://www.teagueprecisionchokesltd.co.uk/index.html

Oh I've toured the shop and looked at many fine guns he's working on but anymore he gets chewed out for a 10 minute lunch and claims he's " grounded " till he gets a little more caught up with work. And seeing how he's working on my gun also I don't like to take up too much of his time just talking.

And if you had the intestinal fortitude to watch "Slick Willie" and his friend on the tube last night you might also be wondering what all those nice looking people in the audience thinking? For me, I'm at a loss.
