Absolutely! All is going good here. I have a new addition to my family now since getting custody of my 3 yr old nephew. So needless to say my house has been very busy with a little one running around again. Takes a little getting used to since my girls are teenagers already. Lol

Dee,
If you will forgive my saying so it would seem you are still in a win win situation. You have a shotgun in your possession that belonged to your great grandfather. For most of us in the PGCA that means a lot. When you take it sometime to a Parker gathering you may be surprised to find it might be in better shape than you think. The bores may be better than you think on the inside. If nothing else someone who knows what they are doing and can give suggestions on making the outside of the gun look better even if just a wall hanger. It is still a family heirloom and that means a lot. It would mean even more to your children and their children. Dennis |

It sure is a win win! I took it out of the gun safe today and was looking at it. Ran my fingers inside the barrel and it felt smooth but again I'm ignorant when it comes to what it does/doesn't need. I took a few more pictures of it while I had it out and took one without the plates that my great grandfather had screwed in to keep the stock together. I must say I was horrified at the sight and almost made me cry. Lol. I was heartbroken!

Hi Charlie! Thank you, It feels good to chat again with everyone about this old Parker.... But I don't have any plans or funds for that matter to change anything with this gun. I was just taking pictures for reference for you guys and myself.
