If it were me, I would put the PG trigger guard away, and buy the nice one that Galazan sells, have it engraved with the SN and then I would always have the option to restock it in the future, in it's original configuration. Once you modify the original one, there's no going back. Galazan's is $75, and to weld, finish and polish the old one, then have it re numbered in the correct location would, I'm sure, cost a lot more.

I agree with Edgar. I would look foe an original straight grip bow(they are out there) and keep the original stock and bow together.

Dave when read his post I took it the original stock is gone and it's not coming home. To me it then comes down to the decision of; replacement from Galazan, guard from another gun, or fabricate the original. I would not modify the original if the guns original stock still exists.

Sorry, My mistake. That changes everything. But I would still search for an original Parker guard bow though. Post a WTB here ya never know what will turn up.
