I bought a DH two barrel Miller trigger pigeon gun in a bag, in parts. I had no idea if it was all there. Babe and Lawrence DelGrego put it together for $100 plus shipping. They never mentioned any parts that may have been missing.

I'm always amazed with how much crud is involved. My best friend today was the ultrasonic bath and it was very black after several times through. Even then, there was hardened gunk that required a bit of physical effort. Even more amazing is that the gun was shootable but not easy to operate. I have found after a few small issues that a "tinkerer" can dismantle and reassemble a Parker with relative ease. It is a well engineered action and can be completely disassembled without having to destroy some pieces as in some other sxs guns. Tough to find a replacement for a destroyed part, as it must be new or remanufactured as a parts gun won't do. These pics show how to remove and reinsert main springs, plungers and hammers. Another member mentioned to use a punch pin to hold the plunger in place while removing the hammer pin screw. Before that I was just pushing the plunger in with the dowel and trying to insert the hammer pin screw. Possible, but not easy. The punch pin makes it easy. Tomorrow it wil be ready to pattern. Cheers, Jack

You do get to see some strange stuff. Here the unhooking slide has been smacked many times in an effort to remove it. They gave up. All that has to be done is undo the small screw on the edge of the trigger plate and the slide will "slide" right off. This slightly abused VH 16 is re-assembled and ready to be fired. Maybe tomorrow. Cheers, Jack
