My Conversation with Simmons

[Ed Blake]

Yes, David had a difficult time with his project. Me, I got lucky, which is better than being smart or good looking.

[Parker Bachelder (Brad's Profile)]

The Parker Barrel project is still alive and well. I have been quiet about the status due to the fact that we would be overwhelmed with orders and not able to deliver.
It has been a long painfull road, but we currently have the programs for the various mono-blocs, top and bottom rib profiles, matting program and tube suppliers. We purchased a precision German Gun Drill and are working on fixtuering. The goal is to build barrels of the same quality and configuration of the originals. Quality and performance are second to none.
I can't give an accurate time frame for the start of production. We are still Setting up from the move. I can say that Parker Barrels will be the first ones that we run. I will keep our members posted. Thanks,

Brad

Brad, you are the man. I want to work for you. However, I can't afford to. Like my last job, I never took a paycheck, only took guns and gunsmithing in payment.
