Ian, the major demographics are still 61-70 and over 70. Both at 34.5%. The results are on this site.
That’s still 69% over 60. Not good.

Granted, that is a small sampling of PGCA members. 200 responded to the survey out of almost 1500 members. Plus, there are many other shooters/collectors who have Parker guns that are not members of the PGCA. For example, at our range we have a solid core of double gunners that is growing every year. They are not members of any organization.
