Craig, stop and think for a minute. The 8 was outlawed in 1918, for ducks. That does not mean it was not used long after that, for ducks. Remembering the outlawing of lead shot for ducks, I can assure you that it was used many years after that, and may even continue to be, for ducks. Parker had no responsibility for how the guns were used, legal or illegal.
