"Wobbly" Parker hammers often have more to down with worn lockwork than with the actual hammer fit on the spindle (assuming the hammer is seated properly and the screw is tight)...I always loctite my hammer screws. Centerpunching to gain more interference fit, though temporarily effective in some cases, is very amatuerish repair practice.
