IMH (and often worthless) O,
However it was done, a unique piece of Parker history, and a wreck of a gun, that all but a very few people in this country would have thrown away, was saved. Any fix that doesn't meet someone's concours standard can always be righted by a future owner, now that the gun will exist for future owners.
thanks for sharing the story and the pictures (unfortunately all the chicken coops around here were torn down years ago
