Parker 28 "O"/"VF"/"P"? - Page 3

Michael, Bill's advice may have stung a bit, but he's absolutely right. I'd get that gun back to the seller so fast the postman won't know what hit him.
The seller's pictures of the breach end are so blurry, no one would know from those shots that it has been sleeved, but two other shots, on close inspection surely look like it has. You will spend more money to make the gun mechanically right than you'll ever get out, and it's really an awful redo on top of all the other issues. I also hate to see anyone get burned, but most especially when it's their first Parker.

If you notice some of the photos are clear and some are not. Looks like he dilbrately tryed to hide certain features. You may have a problem. From the way he worded the discription it would be hard to say that he dilbratly miss lead anyone even though we all know he did. There is also nothing mentioned about a warrenty or a inspection. Good luck. I hope it works out for you.

It's too bad. I would really like a nice Parker 28.

I will deal with this guy. Does anyone have a nice 28 to sell?

He states the gun is "Chambered" in 28 gauge. That immediately raises a flag with me.

He didn't picture the rib logo, he didn't picture the entire barrel flat, the part that was shown was blurred so the T marking couldn't be seen, the barrels are blued, masking the twist pattern, he didn't say that the gun was sleeved when it should have been obvious to him. Get it back to him immediately because I think he knew what he was selling, but kept it a secret. Let us know when the check arrives. This guy has had problems before.

Bruce makes reference to "Chuck's research letter" in his post, but I don't find any research letter shown for this Parker. Where can we find the letter?

Send it back as fast as you can, period, and burn the sellers ears over the phone.

Anyone note the serial # on the under lug is 36532. Wonder what else has been faked up on it?

I don't think you're seeing it right. That's WAY before cocking hooks and that type of lug. Before hammerless actions too.
