Not quite a basket case, but close. Need a good Parker Gunsmith

[Phil C]

Some guns are shooters. Lets look at the positives. Great bores, locks up tight, wood is solid the butt stock is not cracked through the wrist. Replace the wedge and screws and enjoy shooting it. If you really like the way it shoots for you start looking for a butt stock or since you seem to be familiar with wood work, take it on a summer project. For $50.00 I would have torn my pocket getting the money out.

That side panel checking leads me to believe it could be the Caesar's Parker.

Clearly anyone could see by the design that it is a tribute to Louis XVI.

[Jack Kuzepski]

Yeah but Caesar who? Maybe Sid Caesar! I'd guess you'd need a letter to tell you that. It certainly didn't belong to Tsar Nicolas of Russia.
That gun should still make a good shooter.

Anytime you think a Parker is beyond restoration take a look at "The Coffee Can Parker" in the current issue of Parker Pages.

Now the good part, It looks like all the parts are there, the bores are nice and shiney and when close the barrels are tight against the action. I black powder hunt with other double classics, a L. C. Smith, a Fulton and a Model 99 Forehand Damascus hammer Double (the most fun). I would love to get the Parker up and running. Can anyone recommend a good Parker gunsmith? Here are some pictures of the Parker. Thanks, Steve

I will resort this gun, make new wood for it, repair lock up, engraving, new screws, I only can fix pitting inside barrels
My name is Paweł Janusz, please email me for pictures and look up pictures in my profile albums too

Pawel, do you have some before and after photographic examples of Parkers that you have repaired/restored? I'm sure we would all like to see them.

I agree with Dudley, is this project worth it?. NO.
Find a nice gun and buy it and you will be saving yourself a lot of money.
