Recoil pad advice
I've added a couple of Parkers to my little collection of late, and was shooting this past week when I came across a very knowledgeable collector who suggested that I change out the recoil pad on my 20 gauge, as it is not appropriate. It's a 1929 vintage Parker, V grade. Nice all the way around. What's the proper pad for that vintage? And what's a good source? And while I'm at it, can anyone assist with details on the sight beads? This 20 doesn't have them (broken off?) and I would like to get the proper ones installed. This collector also told me that the 20 did not come with a mid-barrel one originally, but there's a hole that I wouldn't mind filling. So I have two beads that need replacing. I assume that a good gunsmith is my best bet. Anyone know one near Richmond, VA? Thanks for all your help.
