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.

Restoration of Lifter 10ga nearly complete
Stock broke in two locations, wood black with grime, surface rust on most of metal surfaces, barrels with very little damascus pattern visible, couple of pieces of aluminum for a butt plate, a home made extractor that didn't work and had to be replaced. This is a pretty rare 5 frame 10 ga in grade 2, Lifter with check hook, 32" bbls with open chokes, Finally got a chance to shoot SC with it a couple weeks ago and faired 30 for the 50 shot course, at nearly 12 lbs the close fast moving birds are a challenge.

That wood is remarkable! Best wood I've ever seen on a Grade 2. Who did the work? And the barrels - who did those?
