I guess Simmons was the one that risked shipping it out to begin with but I don't know if that was customary for the time, or a gun marketing differentiator tactic. Marketing and service after the fact was obviously different than it was today, to some extent.
Passing thought looking at the price list from Simmons that was the retailer, what do you think the markup on these guns were. I mean what was the price that Parker was selling these guns or as an agent what was the commission or handling fee of the gun sale.
