Are you limiting your opinion to just screwing with the chokes?

How about other alterations from original such as refinishing or honing of fluid or composite barrels, adding a pad, stock bending, adding finish or complete refinishing the stock, restocking, re-cutting the checkering, etc. on any Parker gun whether it's been messed with previously or not?

If you feel the same about other alterations there might be enough seismic activity to measure on the Richter Scale from all the grave rolling going on in the Meriden cemetery, not to mention the upheaval coming out of the gunsmithing community.
