Chris,
I could not open the attachment to see the pictures. I have looked at the original and I must say you are very fortunate to have found a CH with Bernard barrels. If it were my Parker I would leave the sling swivels for the time being and just shoot the gun. I lived in Europe for five years and became almost dependent on a sling. I wish I had had swivels this past winter hunting duck all day in waist deep water. That #4 framed Parker got a little tiresom. I too would get rid of the "rear sight". There are some stockers out there that can make a duplicate of Parker work. You may be one of them. I would sure think about adding all that I could to bring this old girl back.
Kindest, Harry
