Someone mentioned the butt plate of this otherwise fine Parker. That Butt assembly, IMO needs to be replaced. I've seen Silvers Pads on old Parkers and that is what I would suggest.
As for the owner's slashing remarks? He has probably been educated on other sites which are often rude. We are about Parkers here, and that bloke owns a very nice one. So he is welcome here. I'm sure he'll understand us better as he drops in more often.
To the owner: nice Parker thar dude. I would keep it too. As for insurance? I suggest that you buy a safe and self insure. If you lost your Parker you would never be able to replace it. Buying a quality safe is a pretty safe thing to do.
Yes, many Parkers are expensive, but I don't care. I hanker for another like so many other's. Mine have cost under $1500 each, but I was lucky. If I find one that I can afford I strike like a rattler!
