I'm with Bruce....I too like the look of a good honest hunting gun in original condition, but this one is just too far gone to pretend that it still looks good. A Parker deserves to look better than that. New pad, deoiled and steamed stock with new finish, blue the trigger guard, triggers and safety button, carefully clean up the frame, and then evaluate whether the barrels should be restored. After that's all done properly, even the naysayers will admit that it looks better and is more desirable to own than in its current condition...well, maybe not all of them...
