Appreciate all the feedback with regards to the frame and forend latch which have altered finish from OEM. I will look closer at the stock which has been "pinned".
What is required to preserve the current condition, patina and prevent further spotting? I have only wiped with silicone cloth.
Lastly how do these alterations from OEM affect the value? Should the Parker be preserved as is or have some of the deficiences restored?
