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.

I have 5 and one has given me trouble (a well used 16/20 combo. The original owner (a prominent member of PGCA) had accuglassed the tang to avoid compression of the wood. I found that by keeping the screws tight and by cleaning and lubing (once) I have had about 1000 rds trouble free so far. I do it myself following the takedown instructions posted elsewhere on this site. Takes about an hour all told and saves mea ton of money

I'll second Dan May's good trigger work.
In my case, it was on a factory Ithaca NID single trigger grade 3E. Gunter Pfrommer had restocked it since the stock was broken and badly modified by hacks, and he also refinished all the metal, converted it from pistol grip/splinter to staight stock/BTFE .
All was fine for a little bit with the gun, but after a while the gun was doubling. I posted over on the doublegun forum a year or so ago and Dan May responded and said he could work on this design. The trigger was an old Ithaca copy of an earlier Miller. I just got it back a few days ago and shot it this weekend. It never missed a beat. I changed the barrel selector position everytime I reloaded the gun, since the doubling seemed to be tied to the selector movement before. Dan May did a great job.
