Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

I got my old sterlingworth out to the club today, she is in wonderful condition and is choked at .685. to tight for sporting clays, even to tight for trap seems like it would be fine with #4 shot at 40 yards on ducks so here comes the heart breaker i'm going to open the chokes up 15 thou. to make it more useful to me so say goodby to a set of unmolested 30in barrels. better this gun than a parker

If your Sterly is in wonderful condition please reconsider opening the chokes. IMHO 30" barrels should have tight chokes. I've come to like tight chokes and don't find them to be that much of a handicap, but that's just me. I've turned down a number of nice, 30 and 32" guns because the chokes have been reamed out. Try using spreader loads or even better have fun searching for another gun with 26 or 28" barrels with more open factory chokes or one that has been previously modified. Thanks for listening.
