    I just forund one of my old Parker pens, (ball point) I guess I put it in the drawer because the clip was bent out.
    Parker used to do a repair on these free...LONG AGO..anyway, anyone ever try to take the top of the pen apart? I was hoping I could take the clip off and "persuade" it back int shape...

    I have an old Parker pen with the same exact problem, and for the life of me I can't get the clip bent back right, nor figure out how to get the cap taken apart without breaking it. :eek:

    This is the pen,it's 5'' long, how do I get the clip off so I can "reform" it, (bend it in tighter)?

    I was able to put a screwdriver under the middle of the clip, lifting it slightly, then pressing down on the open end of the tip at the same time to close it slightly ... looks pretty good, better than it was ..but not PERFEKT
