Default Parker Pages, Fall Issue

A quick note to announce that all 1350 copies of the Fall 2015 Issue of Parker Pages went in the mail today. A few may receive it as early as tomorrow but everybody should start looking to receive it early next week.

Best, Dean

Before you all start shouting "Throw the bum out!" please allow me to apologize for some poor editing on my part... and on my own article too...

On page 45, right column, second paragraph of "Shot to Destruction" you will see two sets of three asterisks (***) where I had intended to include the 'drop at comb' of 1 15/16" and the 'drop at heel' of 3 1/8".

I hope I have done better in editing all of the other stories and articles (not that they need much, or any at all). If anyone picks up on something that I have overlooked and that should have been corrected or clarified, please discreetly bring it to my attention through a PM or an email.

By our mistakes, we all learn to improve ourselves... and I'm still learning

Thanks for everything you do. also, thanks for the membership roster! It is interesting to see where all the lovers of Parkers guns live. I had no idea there were so few of us in Mississippi! Dan

Got mine yesterday. Great job, Dean. Thanks for reprinting the Austin Hogan article. He discusses one of his lifters that I now own. The pictures of Charlie Parker's .410 are great also. The heads up on the 2016 Annual Meeting was also helpful for scheduling.
