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.

Edgar,
When someone calls a gun with a lot of case wear, refinished wood and incorrectly recut checkering a "lightly used, high condition gun". I see a problem with that.
The way i see it, using the term "high condition" means high ORIGINAL condition. Maybe i interpret that incorrectly...

Brian, While 'High Condition' isn't as overused as 'Minty', it's still tiring. I'd like a buck for each time it was used in the descriptions in the most recent, well publicized gun auction. That notwithstanding, there's no correlation between 'condition' and 'originality'.
*FLASH* This just in. The Gun has been purchased by a member who just called me, and agreed, it's in 'high condition'. He told me I could quote him "I'm as happy as a dead pig in sunshine" I guess that's happy, just never heard that one before.
