In the mid 1990's when I was interviewing Jack Skeuse regarding PR for
The Parker Story he indicated that when they lost their manufacturing facilities in Japan they looked throughout Europe for another manufacturer to make the PR
but only found one that would or could build the gun to the same quality
standards as in Japan. ( As I recall it was in Italy ) But Reagent would have to charge approximately $10,000 for the standard DHE PR that they had been selling for in the mid three-thousand range. Obviously they knew that would not be possible.
This just indicates the quality in the PR! Today's values are commensurate with
demand, grade, gauge, and rarity factor. As Will Rogers once said about land--
" They are not making anymore"!
