I personally think that Col. Day and his friend deserve an apology. Bruce has been more than gracious in his sharing of information, posting very unique and highly collectible Parkers and other fine firearms, and willing to help research others guns. This behavior should be beneath us as an association and if there is a personality difference, then use the PM mode rather than making it public. Thanks for listening and as an aside, Bruce please don't stop posting those beautiful guns. Jim DiSpagno

Bruce, i am a newcomer to the "World of Parker", and a relative newcomer to the affliction of collecting interesting double guns. NOT a newcomer to dusting both kiln fired, and God created flying objects with double guns.
Always interesting to me when the anonymity of the "net" seems to allow some folks to forget the manners that I know that most "God Fearing, Gun Toting, Gentlemen" are innately imbued with. I for one sincerely appreciate every photo, and tidbit of information that illustrates and edifies that thing we all have in common.......Twice barrel . Smoke poles....particularly Parkers. Ill make this a simple plea...and not just to you... Please continue to share the good, bad, and ugly subjects of our mutual affinity. I will commit to participate with my meager budding collection as well. I think we all welcome critical consideration of all guns presented, but do agree, that the beauty of this association, is the relative absence of critical consideration of each other..... For What it is Worth

Hey Guys: I didn't intend to upset Bruce Day with my post regarding his Q C hammer gun restoration. Dean asked if folks preferred the gun before or after restoration and I answered that I preferred it before. I should have been less direct and colorful with my statement/post. Sorry I didn't intend to upset anyone or create any bad feelings.

Actually Craig - I echoed Bruce's "see which is more appealing." (before or after - assumed) as a lead-in for my comments. It wasn't really my own question at all... but I certainly did state my opinion. It is a fine example of a great restoration on a very worthy gun. |

Thanks to Bruce Day and Anonymous Parker Owners
Bruce, thank-you for all your great photos of Parker guns. Doesn't matter who owns them as long as you have permission to post the pictures. We owe a thanks to both you and the owner.
Please look at the number of "Thanks" your photos received and the individual responses of appreciation before you deleted the photos. Don't let a few comments get under your skin when there is overwhelming appreciation for the effort you put forth. The greater majority by far value your contributions. You clearly disclose restoration when appropriate Also thank-you for answering my questions about the restoration so clearly. I prefer the wood restoration. Please keep em coming. Erick |

Keep the pictures coming.
We all enjoy viewing pictures of classic guns. Those that share their guns with us should be commended.
Comments like "Most of the guns you post pics of aren't yours anyway" are unnecessary, mean spirited and have no place in the discussion forum, IMHO. |
