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..

I'm sorry, but to my eyes that is a horribly ungraceful grip and comb nose.
I don't remember seeing them before I was struck blind by the entire forearm design. That has always been a peeve of mine. I am not a fan of a beavertail on a double anyway, but can appreciate its functional contribution if shooting a lot. However, I have never understood why stockmakers insist on making them the size of a 2x4 which you can't even wrap your hand around, and designing the lines so that they wander up and down the side of the barrel like a mountain range. I have an upgraded 20 ga Smith that was upgraded (not metalwork of this degree) that had incredible stocks by a really top tier nationally known stockmaker. I bought it because the price was 1/3 of the replacement and it had the original stocks. It had a similar forearm, and I shiver every time I walk by it.
