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.

A solid rib skeet. It looks like a new gun. Is it 26" or 28"? A good friend sold me his Arnold Griebel engraved 30" gun a few years ago. It is well stocked in some painfully plain wood with a nice checkering pattern. Oddly enough, not long befor I bought this gun, I sold some nice TC grade original wood to a friend who had some poorly stocked 32s. I really like the gun but it doubles occasionally. I should have Babe Del Grego look at it next time I visit.

Good day Bill: The old gal has 26" barrels and is so tight it is hard to put together if you have more than a light film of oil on the sides of the breech. It almost acts like hydraulic lock. Were all 32's that way? I talked to DelGrego's and another "smith" that works on 32's and was told if the trigger was badly adjusted by someone who didn't know them they will double in a heartbeat, and if they tried to lighten the pulls by stoning the hammers a repair could cost $1,000.00 or more. They suggested putting a trigger pull gage on it and if the trigger pull was less than 5 or 6 pounds somebody has monkeyed with it. The trap boys were the most guilty of this I was told. I havent't been able to shoot it myself yet as I had an aortic dissection Memorial day weekend but will be ready by September 1st, Kansas dove opener. I had a buddy shoot it before I bought it and it works fine, I just had trouble getting it away from him. Have a great day!. Lee.
