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.

Top lever locked
When disassembling barrels from the receiver, the top lever is in a off-set position (approximately 45 degrees to center.) Should I try to re-install the barrel to correct this?

When you take the barrels off the lever will stay to the right. When you reinstall them, it will come back to center and lock them on. If you want to center the lever while the bbls are off, take a pencil or something else soft...NOT METAL.... and push it down into the slot between the tables, right up against the breech faces, and push down on the small square metal piece that you can see sticking out down at the bottom. Hold the lever over to the right a bit when you do this. That metal tab will depress down a bit and allow you to let the lever come to center. This is desirable to take the tension off the lever return spring and helps in putting the gun into cases. In some soft cases leaving the lever to the right will have it catching on the lining as you pull it out. If you leave the lever to the right it will hit the bottom of trunk cases, which you don't want. I always neutralize mine when storing them broken down. I hope I've made this clear enough. The little metal tab you're looking for is only about 1/4" in size and is down at the bottom in the table slot, right against the floor plate. Just don't push down on it with anything metal to prevent marring it.
