Jim:
If you've never taken a hammerless Parker apart before (which I must assume) please proceed in a MOST cautious way. They are a bit more complicated than most A&D boxlocks... and some parts are easy to lose. Also... the NRA information does NOT tell you that you must FIRST remove the sear pin and sears to remove the buttstock (on a totally original gun anyway). If you bodger this step you can easily chip/damage the stock head.
And please... if the bottom plate screws are original and unbuggered, grind a turnscrew to fit them precisely -- and use it carefully. Nothing shames an old Parker more than buggered bottom plate screws.
Best advice to a novice on taking down a Parker is to do as little of it as possible.
Best, Kensal
