The "Gold Hearts" Parker is a bizarre and frightening gun. As the PGCA letter shows, it is a "Gyro Gearloose" modification which completely destroyed the original cachet of the original configuration. When it first surfaced on Doug Turnbull's junk table at the Millbrook Vintagers years ago, as Bill began negotiations for sale, I had to leave the tent. Much to his credit, however, the 'dingus' has been rescued from the fate of being parted-out, turned into a lamp, or donated to a Ripley's Believe It or Not museum. Now we have proof through the Order Books that there were in fact real orders for "Parkers Gone Wild."
