111205 DH Back in Action
I bought 111205 from a seller on this forum's For Sale section. It is believed to be have belonged to JH Stair. JH Stair was a competitive shooter and duck hunter. The gun had charisma for me, 30" F/F, factory 3" chamber, factory Silver's pad, hickory rod, J.H.S factory engraved on the trigger guard, trap comb and a very rare and early Monte Carlo stock with nice dimensions and the asking price was a bargain!. The gun had bad screw slots, the wood was absent most of it's finish and the pad was rock hard and missing it's plugs. I added finish to the wood and installed a new Silvers pad on it's original curved butt. Brain Dudley repaired or replaced all the action screws and re-cut the checkering. Brain did an excellent job and I think the old gun looks respectable for a shooter with some cool features. I have less than $2300. into the gun, the Parker For Sale forum is a good place to buy in my opinion. Craig
