I think it's just a shadow from the fabric Dean. Unfortunate on the stock situation; it looks to be in decent condition otherwise. Looks like Mark McQuire used it to whack a homer... Maybe there's someone out there who can make their own replacement stock.

Now that you say that, Rich, you're probably right. I didn't mean to disparage her gun, just calling what I saw but I'm probably wrong about a dent. It is a decent gun, I agree - except for the obvious, of course.

Definitely no dents! Must just be the shadow. Yes, the barrel is in gorgeous shape but the stock, well, we know, not so much. I wish my Grampa was here to give me the history, I don't know how the stock was broken. Maybe someone will be selling a stock at some point?

Sorry Jenea, didn't mean to dis your gun.
Getting a 'take-off' Parker stock that will fit your gun will be pretty hard to find. They're out there but the right one will probably need some expert fitting.

No offense taken! I guess my question to some is if you were GIVEN the gun would you have said, "Oh, no, sorry, it has a broken stock, I don't want it." HAHAHA!

Anyways, the gun is NOT for sale, parts gun or not. I'm looking to learn about the gun and the rest of them in my collection. Hopefully at 30 I have time left in my life to look for a stock.

Thanks everyone for the feedback!

I don't think any of would refuse a gun like yours, it is very nice otherwise.

And yes, you've got plenty of time ahead of you (about as much as a lot of us have behind us) to find a stock and learn about your other guns. BTW, what others do you have?

I'm getting the impression that you've inherited a group of guns from somebody?
