Gunsmith in Anchorage, AK for Parker?
 

Hello,

I posted this inquiry on the DGBBS knowing there were some members from Alaska there... and it was suggested that I post here as well.

While visting a friend in Anchorage last week, my buddy brought out his great grandfather's Parker VH that was handed down from him. The gun is in wonderful condition with and just needs a good clean/lubrication of the interanals and possbily a small dent repaired which shows through the left barrel. Hoping that folks from or familiar with Anchorage can recommend a qualified smith that knows Parker's that I could pass along.

Many thanks,

Jerry

Keith Kearcher in Bend, Oregon, is about as close as we know of.

Thank you Dave. Mr. Kearcher has done work for me and I thought that may be a good avenue for my friend in Anchorage if no local option. He's a lucky guy to have this handed down to him and I'd hate to see it get butchered...

Hope the sun starts shining up that way for you... I just returned from a 10 day trip and boy was it wet... but still beautiful and the fishing was unreal.

Regards,

Jerry

Haven't seen the sun much in Kodiak this trip, but no heavy rain either. Three of us did bring home about 180 pounds of Halibut Monday. The Kings and Silvers have been eluding us.
