Choose carefully on Parker ejector repairs, i.e., someone that really knows what he's doing and has parts which are very hard to find. Perhaps your Mr. Schultz is that man but if me I'd ask questions to check his Parker ejector experience beforehand.
Thanks! I do fully trust Mitch, and I know he has worked on Parkers. Question would be how much Parker ejector work has he done. And he wants to retire in June. Maybe I’ll call Delgrego or one of the other gunsmiths named in a few posts and see what their turn arounds are.

(1) Anyone know of any other gunsmiths in CT or surrounding areas that I could begin a new relationship with? Delgrego is a 3hr drive for me. Would be nice to not have to ship when I need work done.
(2) Would I need to send the whole gun for this repair or just the forearm?
