I feel the same way Bill, that we didn't get to visit much at all.... so much to see and to do at Hausmann's. We missed Linda this time and I hope you tell her so too.
Thank so much for the compliment but I don't think I'll ever fill Austin's editorial shoes... but I'll certainly keep on trying! |

We will come to expect Dean's humility concerning his expertise in publishing and editing the Parker Pages, but our job is to keep him in place. Thank you, Dean.

I think I will re-read Dave Suponski's article - that's not how I interpreted Dave's information Charlie.

Steve Kleist' article "OWE" hit home and was well appreciated on my end. I don't think I could own a gun that I didn't shoot and hopefully shoot as much as I could which has me buying those OWE guns he describes. Tough decisions on which parker gets to go afield or to the range some days but they all get their turn.
Thanks |

I am a little confused. The percentage of components varies for each steel. In some cases there is a significant difference. The carbon content is close but the other components are not. In the next to the last paragraph Dave states that PB used basically the same steel in their barrels and used a good marketing strategy.
So Dave, can you give us more information on how you arrived at your conclusion. And, thanks for taking on this project. |

Mark,
I have not read Dave's article yet as I just received my PP but can say that in every grade of steel there is a range in which each component may fall. I also want to thank Dave for seeing this project thru and look forward to reviewing this article. |

I too, just received Parker Pages last evening. A tip of my hat to Dean for what looks to be an outstanding issue! Sadly, unless you have worked on the back end of one of these publications, so few realize the degree of difficulty in getting it out the door. Actually, it is quite humbling to us in the AHFCA, that you manage to hit the mark 4X a year. I know first hand how much sweat and toil my esteemed colleague Mr. Noreen endures, to get our semi-annual "Weekly Reader rag sheet" (no offense Dave!!) into the mail. Again, I applaud Dean and his staff for the phenomenal job they do and sincerely hope the PGCA membership appreciates the consummate professional they have at their service.
