I've heard that Parker's were basically clockworks requiring extensive fitting to get them to work right. But I just happen to live only 90 miles from what I understand from others on this board, is one of a few gunsmiths that can actually work on Parker's.

But yours and others recommendations to seek out a set of donor barrels makes more sense both logically and economically. I have been looking on and off for a couple of months now, to no avail. So any suggestion where I might find a set would be appreciated.
