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..
Over one year but finally as complete as it is going to be. Grade 2, toplever, 1883, 30", 10 lbs. 1 ounce, IM & F, .030 in right and .035 choke in left, .050 minimum thickness. Stock was missing a piece behind left hammer and in bad shape. Thanks to Greg C. for selling it to me, Dale Edmonds for barrel refinishing, Danny Patton on the wood, Tom Carter for the new hammer screws, Thierry Duguet cleaned up and reengraved the screws and I did the nitre bluing. Took it after geese today, but no shots taken.
Discussion on barrels to follow in a different thread. Four different patterns on the Damascus barrels, and this is a Grade 2!
