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.

Mr. Nelson:
I'd send the barrels to Kirk Merrington:
Merringtongun.com
Kirk can sometimes re-attach a rib without a complete re-lay. But it takes an expert to evaluate your situation. In either case, there is no one in the US better to assess the job. And... some of the ribs on Japanese guns are brazed on. Kirk will know. He can also assist with refinish if necessary.

I had a Trojan rib re-soldered without damage to the barrel finish. The smith wanted to refinish the barrels as he did not think it could be done without re-bluing also. I asked him to try and then we could evaluate after reattaching the barrels. Barrels had 98% original finish and I knew that he favored a high polish blue. Barrel blue was undamaged with this job.
Good Luck,
Erick
