Hi Jack,

As Charlie recommended, PGCA member Brian Dudley can repair and restore Parkers with great expertise in a reasonable amount of time.

Brad Bachelder is my gunsmith who has repaired and restored many doubles for me. If I did not have such a strong relationship with Brad I would certainly ask for Brian's services.

There are of course other smiths whom other members could recommend. I do not however know of any within a reasonable drive of your location.

When I buy or sell firearms I prefer USPS Priority for shipping. If one ships on a Monday the delivery will be made on either a Wednesday or Thursday. This avoids ones gun sitting in a postal storage area over the weekend when cleaning and maintenance personnel may have access to where guns are stored. I also have adequate firearms insurance through Jack Richardson, historicfireams.com . Jack is a doublegun enthusiast himself and knows how to take care of his clients!

For what it's worth,
Mark
