It really bothers me every time I read of this type of transaction. I have bought guns from well known dealers that were described as "untouched original condition" only to find that they were not original condition guns. Chambers lengthened, bulged barrel repairs and wood re-finishes are three that come to mind. I am a businessman. I have been successful by being honest, forthright and a person of integrity. I wish those principles were followed by everyone but the greed factor often seems to win out. It really bothers me and I am just about to the point of only buying Parkers from friends that I know and trust.
