I am not defending or promoting the Tate brothers. I am no fan of theirs whatsoever.

Millions of these Gen-Zers were searching for something masculine and ended up "following" the Tate brothers (before they were canceled based on various criminal allegations). My point was simply that it is only a matter of time before these Gen-Zers—eschewing the culture wars and desperately seeking masculinity—find their way to parkerguns.org.

I don't think rebellious Gen-Zers will choose classic American doubles when they are ready to flex their testosterone

Hello Sir, 36 years old here I've have recently found interest in Parkers always loved the clean lines of a sxs but in my own opinion Parkers and A.H. Fox shotguns are 2 of the nicest American shotguns produced. But anyway I look forward to years of collecting and enjoying them God willing, Steven.

Steven, hang tight and exercise patience. Many of us are long in the tooth (okay, in my case a geezer) and our guns may show up at an auction or three in the not too distant future (but not soon, I hope).

Steven, if you find a Parker for sale privately, make sure you offer the seller about what he told his wife he paid for the gun and not the asking price. Just trying to help a brother out.
