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.

I have a 16 ga vh that I had DelGrego do a total restoration on about 8 or 10 yrs ago. Did not know at that time that they only colored with cynanide. Anyhow, the gun came back after a yr and i noticed the base plate was not seated completely and the old screws had not
been been replaced so i called lawrence and shipped it back. Colors looked good tho. Anyway, the gun comes back. Base plate is fully seated with new screws. However the screw heads had a copper luster which did not look correct. Called Lawrence and he says rub the screw heads with an eraser. I did and they did not look any different. About 6 months later after hunting with it and some skeet, i noticed the colors on the base plate were just about completely worn off. No solvents used on outside of the gun
. Just Rem oil
Go figure. Gun is at Bachelders for re coloring bone charcoal. Have not used DelGrego since.
