As you can tell by the comments here, your Parker is a very nice one and with the RST shells you can shoot her for another hundred years. (after her physical) I suggest that you join our association and add your gun's serial numbers to our archive which means that your Parker lifter has been reborn!
She has a date with a gunsmith on Wednesday and I have already ordered a flat of vintage shells from polywad.
