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.

We came upon an original shell top gun case with a Parker inside, as shown as No. 320 in the 1893 Parker catalog. That case was not marked "Parker" , nor have any of the walnut cases I have seen. Dean, we showed photos of the original #320 case here and the replica case made using the same hardware. The original case leather was falling apart. They were not very well made. You saw the replica case at the annual meeting.

The pictured case is an original factory prewar Browning A-5 case, for a two barrel set, probably with the divider between the two barrels removed so that a double barrel shotgun barrel set will fit. Don't feel too bad, the Browning case is worth a bunch. Want to sell it? I would be interested in purchasing it. Email me at wilmrph@verizon.net
