Thanks!! I am waiting on the letter and hope to get some really good history in it. Mine is hammerless it is an AAHE it was sent back for the auto ejectors upgrade so someone really wanted them done. Hope to dig up some good history about its life!!

The letter is in!! I have enjoyed reading the history. This gun was surely a very loved piece. The original owner was a very well known man in NC. The history is all there. His main hobbies were, golfing, motoring and like I guessed hunting. He was one of most wealthy cotton manufactures in NC and had specific orders for this parker to fit his likings. It wasnt hard to find out who he was. This parker was clearly modded for his own personal likings and I believe he may have had it nickle plated as a show piece at some point later in life. There isnt any proof other than some very faded notes that were not legible... so the mystery still stands but I am going a bit further in my own research to find out more. So here it is....
