ted: perhaps you would like to elaborate on what you mean by past weasely answers....as for the position of double gun top levers; this is an indication that the bolting system may be worn. however, just because the bolt is worn, does not necessarily mean the gun is not in safe shooting condition. if the bolt does wear to the point that the gun is becoming loose and unsafe, then it should be repaired. some bolting systems are more durable than others. parkers have very durable bolts. should a parker bolt ever wear to the point that it needs repair, then updating the bolt with what is known as king's improvement is the suggested fix.
