My First parker

[Fred Slyfield]

I wish I had this gun ready to shoot this season as I'll make one more trip to North Dakota before the season ends, I just don't want to risk shooting the gun until I get the stock fixed.

It's not a bad crack , I guess I could go Redneck on it and wrap the wrist with wide electrical tape and take it out "just once" with the light loads.

Thanks again for all the help

A better redneck repair that would last years is a wrap of copper wire, twisted and soldered at the end. Easily dismantled when you want to do something different. I fixed a 12 gauge VH that way and felt comfortable shooting any loads in it.

Thanks Bill, I still haven't convinced myself to do this but I'll see.??

Who will you have fix your stock? I would be sure to chose someone with proper experience for a fine piece like that, maybe Brian Dudley, stockdoctor, etc.

I have contacted Kody Kearcher in Oregon about fixing the crack.
