Hi Unregistered,

On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...

So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.

Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...

I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..

John D.

To set the record straight. King applied for an ejector patent in 1891 #470,157 but it was never put into production. The Parker ejectors that we are all familiar with was applied for around 1900. The first guns offered with ejectors were cataloged in 1902. Bruce's statement about guns made in the 1890's with ejectors is very true. Many guns went back for ejector retrofits.
