You all make some very good and convincing points. I'll have the gun gone through mechanically and professionally cleaned and likely leave it as it is. I was on the fence about the restoration but not crazy about the monetary investment. The money I save on not doing the restoration I can put into another Parker or more Winchester.

In my opinion Marcus, money well spent. Good luck with your next Parker.

They are only original once. Enjoy it the way it is and pass it to the next caretaker when it's time.

Do you have a price range in mind?
