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.

It’ll be interesting to see what those long barreled guns go for…  |
I’d like to see how that 40” brute feels in my hands . And no none of them feel lively I suppose you could say but some feel just better than others .

Craig, it would take me a while to get that 8 swinging…and I’d corkscrew myself into the ground before I could stop it.  My respect is growing for you 8-gauges.
