Brad Bachelder has the barrels so you can't see those yet but they were sad and admittedly cut from their original length. My use for this gun will be to shoot skeet as well as shoot clays. It was too pretty to be parted out.
OK I am a sucker. Tom Carter cleaned up the metal parts and fixed screws as only Tom can do. All parts will be re-united soon, hopefully in time for the Southern. Pictures in process: |

Okay Tom. When are you going to put out a list of all the stuff you can do? Nice work on cleaning up that metal and of course the screws look awsome.

Between this basket case Grade 2 and my C grade Bernard resuscitation project I may have to sell my favorite 28 gauge to Edgar for all my expenses.

Dean, you do not want straight grain through the wrist. What you really want is a rising grain, parallel to the wrist. George's repaired stock, while beautiful and beautifully repaired, does not have the strongest grain structure of most Parker stocks. I still am in awe of Chris and Tom's work.
