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.

I disassembled and cleaned the gun thoroughly. Did not see any mechanical damage. When I reassembled it and test fired it, I could not get it to double with RST shells. I am not sure what ammunition the owner was using in it. He could have easily used 2 3/4 inch shells. This gun has short chambers and should use 2 1/2 inchers. I will let him know that.

I doubt that gun was chambered for 2 1/2" 12g shells. Probably for 2 5/8". If so there should be no issue shooting 2 3/4" target loads through that gun. Someone may have tinkered with the sears to lighten up the trigger pull? If so that could lead to an unsafe situation.
