Hunting guns are really shot very little, and carried a whole lot. Serious competition guns on the other hand get shot and abused a lot. From the records we've seen many instances the big name shooters sending their Parker guns back to Parker Bros. every few years for "removing dents and repolishing the barrels", "tightning the action", "restocking" and "overhauling". The guys at the gun club today were just talking about the end of season deal on sending their Ljutics back to Yakima for the complete overhaul and rebluing!! Nothing new.
