Forum Ramblings

[Double Lab]

John,
Welcome to the PGCA you will be an asset to our organization. It was great meeting you and your lovely target busting, award winning daughter. I don't think of the different collector organizations as adversarial but as a group of guys and gals who love these wonderful old guns. I'm a Parker guy but have an interest in all three of the big American makers [Parker, Fox, Smith] just to name a few. Noone from any of these groups has treated me with anything but respect when I have a question about one of their guns. Once again welcome and looking forward to seeing you in the near future. I'll be contacting you soon regarding your health drink.
Daryl

John mentions that our original poster has bad manners. Marcus describes our original poster as "puerile", a good assessment also. I described his behavior as impolite. The person who, a while back, was suspended from participation in this forum was all three, as well as disruptive to the users of the forum. The original poster on this thread knows that his behavior and sometimes his demeanor is unacceptable, but continues to post contentious rhetoric, then bows out when the words hit the fan. He is otherwise a positive contributor to the forum. What is going on here?

I missed the original post but I think I've got the gist of it.

From a purely economical standpoint, wouldn't it be in every Parker owners best interest to educate anyone and everyone with even the slightest interest in these fine vintage guns? I enjoy all of the pictures I see from all of the various shooting events but I must say, you guys aren't getting any younger (except for AmarilloMike ). To me, it just makes good business sense to cultivate a future market for vintage guns or indeed, our wives will be selling our guns for what we've told them we've paid for them for lack of any knowledgeable or interested buyers in the future.

As always,
Bobby
