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.

Sedgley guns were more utilitarian in appearance than G&H, but very nice guns. G&H had the attention of lots of gentleman out for a stroll at lunch, and I suspect many were bought and never shot.
My favorite G&H was a .22 Hornet built from an M2. My all time favorite Springfield was built by Bob Owen*, and letting it go was yet another indication I had screws loose.
I have a National Match '03 and G&H look alike 22 Hornet now. They will have to do.
Belding & Mull made a beautiful bolt mounted peep site and I held on to one forever, thinking the right gun to put it on would come along. All the was required to mount was to unscrew the cocking piece on, and replace it with B&M sight. In the end, I think I sold it at Baltimore for more than what I would pay for a gun to put it on.
*Bob Owen, AKA RG Owen, ran the custom shop at Winchester for many years. He was a skilled gunsmith, whose work in wood and metal were beyond reproach.
