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.

Roger that on the not NIB condition with the nicks. Wood does not qualify as described either, not for a Repro. Many are much much nicer than this one. I would have flipped the buttstock blank 180 deg before carving and the grain orientation through the wrist is not good. Maybe if it was stripped and given a nice red colored oil finish as one of our members did with his, and wrist was given the copper sheet/wire/nails treatment... At least the colors are unworn. I have a 2-bbl set like that but DT, SFE, SG, and I paid a LOT less than that for it. Are we being too hard on it for some??

Ya, I'm not a real fan of light colored wood. Someday I will find a beavertail for my Repro 28 and it will be all good. Hey wait a minute....I'll just borrow one of Dean's...
