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.

Here are some photos of the action with the stock off of it. I was mistaken in saying that the gun was a sideplated boxlock. It is in fact a sidelock, but it is a reversed sidelock, I guess you would call it. The plates that the lockwork mounts to are internal and removable from the frame. And the outside covers are just that, covers. I have seen similar to this before. But not this specific action design.

The sears are part of the hammers and engage with a solid block attached to the internal plate. The last photo shows the gun cocked.
