Well I think I will get an everyday semi-auto to play the range with, and start cleaning up the Parker. Will be searching out best methods to tear down the ole gal and refinish the stock and forearm as well as cleanup the metal. Don't need perfect but Damn Good will be the goal. Due to loads of projects laying around I will guess it will be early-mid 2011 before I get under way. Would enjoy having someone in my geographic area that is also going through the process to share the experience and likely a beer or scotch as well.
