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.

Too bad somebody thought it would be "smart" to tap those plugs deeper into the buttstock.
Yes, those are for the addition or reduction of weight to balance the gun.
The checkering pattern of the checkered butt is one of the two popular designs in use by Remington on the checkered butt Parkers they were making.

I doubt that those plugs were tapped in. I've seen that on fairly well documented original guns before.
I can only guess why. Maybe recoil over the years?
