The lever position on a Parker means little.

Excuse me? What does one far to the left mean? Did any gun leave the factory with the lever far to the left? That would mean a lot. A lot of wear, tampered with barrels and/or locking parts, slammed shut hard thousands maybe tens of thousands of times, no lubrication, non-matching parts, and on and on. I would not buy a low grade gun with a lever far to the left due to the cost of correcting by replacing parts, welding, etc. Been there, done that.

You must not have read my post before posting and not noticed the word "usually" and "if not tampered with."

I will just quit posting trying to help someone instead of continually being corrected.
