Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Parker 12g field thorough cleaning and restoration
Hi all. I am looking for resources for disassembly and cleaning of a 1902 parker 12g P grade. It locks up fairly well with a slight wiggle and the lever slightly left of center. It doesn't dry fire. I suspect it's not cocking as it likely hasn't been fired since the early 80s.
My plan is to clean it and restore it. I don't have much in the area for gunsmiths although there is someone 3 hours from me. I have restored a few firearms and can do most basic work that doesn't require specialized tools.
Any information would be welcome.
Rick.

The only special tools you'll need are a proper set of gunsmithing screwdrivers.
