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.

Broke Ejectors
Has anyone experienced a broke/snapped ejectors in their Parker reproduction?
BTW,... I’ve had both the left and Right ejectors kickers snap off, right where the 1/2 round rod meets the rim face plate. They snapped appx. A month apart time wise. I shoot skeet with the gun 3 days a week and have put thousands of rounds through it. It’s the 28ga DHE.
Fortunately I was able to repair them by precisely rigging them and clamping.
I also ground a chamfer before welding. The hardest part was filling down the welding and refitting them.
NOTE: the originals have a sharp corners where the 1/2 rod meets the rim face plate. I think this helps them snap ?
So when I filed and fit I left a small radius in the corner for additional strength!
Hence I also needed too cut a small chamfered counter sink at the top of the hole they fit into to allow clearance for the radius I left.
All back together now and working fine again,
Just wanted to let all the folks know, that this is fixable if any of yours snap ?
The fix is somewhat intricate and time consuming, but better than trying to find a replacement. Good luck with that one !
The KEY is in rigging before weld ! ! !
