It was such a great story. I had not yet caught the Parker "bug"when he first posted, so today was the first I had seen this thread, thanks to Mike for bringing it back up. To have such an incredible gun passed down as a family heirloom.... Seriously?? This is the stuff of a fairy tale. Sure makes you hope that that young fellow comes into a stage in life that will allow him to do a proper restoration of a once in a lifetime (if that frequent!) gun......

It's been over six years since this thread started and Stephen may or may not still own this gun. If he does and he checks back hopefully he will see what his family Parker could look like and find a way to get it restored. It won't be cheap and may not be financially sound but it would be a shame not to save that fine old Parker.
