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.

About three or so hours tumbling in the wet pins brought them back pretty well. I doubt they looked much better 120 years ago.

The WIN brass hulls I got from Bill Joliff I put in the sonic cleaner for an hour or so then tumbled them in walnut hills for a couple hours . I wasn’t satisfied with the exterior until I used a brass carding wheel on them . The insides have been giving me trouble . I wanna put plastic donuts in the bottom to get smokeless up even with the primer but I’m having difficulty getting them to stay in when just popping primers . I realize I can load BP and not have to deal with that I just prefer not to shoot BP .
