What's a possible cause for extremely stiff action?

I do not have but 1 Parker unfortunately. I don't think I have any of the screws too tight as they all bottom out turned in the same direction.

Not sure if you have a problem at all you may think so but it opens alot harder after you dropped the hammers because you are cocking the hammers . If you dont drop the hammers and open it its alot easier

Well, that makes sense that it would be harder to open when it's being cocked. Obviously, I don't have much experience with double guns, so hopefully there is not a problem. Thanks for all the info and ideas everyone that responded.
