Gunsmith

[Harry Collins]

Sounds like a great little Parker. I think you are wise to have it checked out. Sometimes those screws just don’t get tightened or work loose. There is a bit of redundancy as there are a total of five screws holding the floor plate. The three you see, the one under the top lever and the one that comes up behind the safety.

[QUOTE=Dean Romig;270288]There are a lot of them around the country Charlie - maybe there’s one within driving distance, where are you?

Venice Florida 15 mi south of Sarasota. Is there a list of qualified Parker gunsmiths available on the PGCA website?

If you click HOME PAGE to the upper left; then FAQs low in the column on the left; you will then see at the top of the FAQs listed: #1 "NEED A GUNSMITH?".

It is a long Thread that lists gunsmiths that have been recommended by individuals on this Forum and usually their specific areas of expertise.

Here is more good advice posted previously by OH Osthaus:

“…..many "gunsmiths" are really no such thing. where ever you go make sure they know double guns. - if none of the recommended gunsmiths are near you, call a few and ship it to one you are comfortable dealing with. the cost to ship it will be cheap insurance compared to having some hack get into it”
