They are not stopping by any means, and the work they are doing is nothing short of masterful. Several examples were shown to us.
I called Parker this spring after Mr. Bachelder's passing and told him if he needed, he could put off working on my Parkers if someone else's project was more urgent. I lost the man who gave me my first Parker, and I lost the man who brought it back to life... all within 8 months. The time I wait for guns has become insignificant. I will never think twice about taking my Parkers to Bachelders... and I don't care how long it takes to get them back, I know what I will get.
Lastly, I want to tell any and all to call the shop. If you have concerns questions, or just want to say hello. Yes they are busy, yes there is some catch up, and YES, Bachelders will continue to provide customers exceptional work... on any and all guns.

Dean,

It's very good of you to take the time to post this. I'm sure Lori and Parker will appreciate it. My recent experience was the same as yours.
