wow - what an intelligent and thoughtful post to introduce oneself with

Welcome Edward

you can find Dave's article on barrel steel in the digital archives of all issues of the Parker Pages ( there will be many more articles in there a metallurgist might enjoy ) the archives are available to members in members only section

the top lever begins life to the right - so that is good - wear will result in its moving to the left. that wear can be caused by abuse such as slamming the gun shut or i suppose lots of dirt.

please check the recommended gunsmith thread to find someone near you for a cleaning.

Welcome aboard Edward. Concerning your search for a gunsmith go to the Parker home page, click on the Parker FAQ's (left tree, near the bottom), the very first topic you will see concerns gunsmiths that these folks have used and would recommend for various services. With a little reading I would think you would find someone near you. Also once you are in the correct thread you will be able to search within that thread specifically so for instance you might search your State or the specific service you are seeking to have completed. Best of luck to you Sir !
