Well, this book project is going to take me a while to put together, but I am working on it.
I wanted to share what I am doing as a starting point.
What I wish to be able to do with this book is have a be all/end all when it comes to parts diagrams/lists for Parker guns. I would hope that one day it could become the standard that people refer to by way of diagrams. I plan on doing this by making sure that EVERYTHING is in one place, simply shown and easy to follow. Yet, be comprehensive in covering every variation of part over the whole span of manufacturing. I plan to cover all action types (hammer/hammerless/SBT), ejector system and likely single triggers as well.
The first thing I am having to do in this process is
create electronic vector drawings of each individual part. Then the parts can be arranged how I wish to show them in the diagrams.
Here is an example of my vector drawings for a hammerless trigger plate assembly (early style).
