What bothers me is that someone will post a buy they made asking for advice, and then not reply or fail to keep the dialogue going about that purchase. I think in this case, folks were very gentle in describing a well worn, obviously tampered with gun, that is far from original and very likely used hard. That being said, I would hope the OP would use it as a buying experience or perhaps talk to the seller about misrepresentation. Personally, I hate seeing someone giving up on Parkers. We all have made mistakes. I buy "shooters" and half my buddies who see them wonder if I'm nuts because they're not "pristine." I'm not a safe queen guy. At the very least I hope the OP would make it shoot safely and use her as Mr Parker intended. Nothing to be embarrassed about, there is a LOT to learn. Ask me how I know.

What bothers me is someone running their mouth when they have no clue what the situation is.
