Hi Mark-

Thanks for the welcome and the sound advice. I figured that every Parker guy not overly spent at Christmas time looked at the auction posting and said...'naw'. But I was wondering with the low S/N if I should only do minimum repair and cleaning because of it's age. It is a very plain and worn gun, but still cool...it's a Parker! Considering the condition of the gun and the dings near the end of the barrels, I have been contemplating cutting it down for my scatter gun collection. Where it is an old, worn gun in my long gun collection, it would be the gem of my short gun collection. I am worried, however, if I do that, will I get kicked out of PGCA or will a Parker collector come after me! If it's only worth what I paid for it ($400) I guess it doesn't matter much either way. A Parker 10 scatter gun would be an awesome sight, and look great next to the short Colt, Rem, and various other makers.

Thanks very much for your input Mark! Chuck
