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.

Not a Parker but "Choke Bored?"
I picked up a basket case 12 gauge Crescent Arms gun and had my brass gauge with me. It told me there was still choke left in the gun, being modified and modified. The barrels were stamped "Choke Bored."
When I got home I measured the bores and both were .710 all the way to the end, cylinder and cylinder in cut barrels. I am wondering what advantage did they gain by deviating from the standard .729 and the gun is hammerless so it had to be made when there was some standardization in the 12 gauge bores.
I wish I could have know how much choke was put into the gun to achieve a hardware store gun with probably full chokes.
