The barrels I got from you, Dean, went out there to be fitted, and the day the gun arrived, Brad called me and we went over everything in detail. Brad went into the hospital the following week, and passed away. I deliberately didn't pester them for a couple months, but then spoke with Parker about it, and thats when the excuses started coming. Every few weeks, I'd call and got a different story each time. Eventually, Lori told me it was done, and it would be in the mail by the end of the week. One YEAR later, it came back, no more fitted than when it went out there. Daylight between the breech, and water table, but perfectly reblued. It went out to Dave F. in CA, and was back in two weeks, properly fitted, profiled, and again, reblued.
