Restoration recommendations

[Andy]

Anyone who knows these guns will spot a repair and it will be worth no more than what the market commands which is not a whole lot for that model. Then again there are a lot of fools who pay top buck for a bad example with poor repair/refinish work "because it's a Parker." I can tell you what I'd do. I'd sell it as is. I have two project guns I was going to have professionally "turned right" and either will cost me North of five grand and I'll be lucky to get that back out. That's my two cents, Merry Christmas.

If that gun were mine I’d reblue the barrels and then I’d put a one inch pad on it and if any of the busted toe area was left I’d get whomever was doing the pad to try and blend a piece of walnut in the toe . And at that you’re gonna most likely be in $700-800 .

I didn’t notice when I first looked you wanting to turn it for profit . That being the case I agree with sell it as is and let the next guy deal with the negative aspects . Certainly the easiest ways to get your fixer uppers fixed is to SELL THEM
