mighty fine display i m glad to have seen them in these pictures..the lucky ones seen them in person..great display... charlie

Thanks, Gary for putting on these great displays. Kevin McCormack and I have been putting on wonderful Parker displays at the Maryland Antique Arms Collectors Show at Baltimore and at other venues for well over twenty years. Very few people who attend these shows appreciate the magnitude of research needed to put on such displays, but we keep doing it, hoping to educate the public about our great interest. Kevin and I have about run out of Parker themes for our displays, but they continue to be interesting.

Bill, I know what you mean! It sort of gets old but I really enjoy talking Parkers with people that do not know about them,trying to get the folks that do to join the PGCA, best money they could possibly spend. As per the themes, I started with the 12 ga collection then to the steel barrel P,s, now hammer guns who knows what is next? Shotshells? or Paper. I would start a collection of 410,s if you and Kevin would front me the money, that would be the cat,s meow. I guess if we live, we will continue to do what we love and that is Parkers in one form or the other. Getting back to the 410,s lets see now for good ones V-20,000, P- 40,000, G-4o,000, D-45,000, C-50,000, B-60,000 A- 100,000 total of about 325,000 I have only seen one A grade 410 and I believe that it was the only one made, I saw it at Chantliy 7 or 8 years ago and it was not in the best of shape then, Gary

Bill, I forgot I do not have a AA Hammer gun, try to buy the one Jack had a few years ago but he would not come off 190,000 do not know if it is still in his private collection of which John says nothing to be sold from it yet, well I can dream about it, I have held one in my hands a couple times. last spring at the Southern Barnett had one but it was sold, Gary

There are a small number of PGCA Members who put on extremely good displays in various areas of the country - Bruce Day, Charlie Herzog, Dave Weber, and others have made us all proud by their exhibits at Pheasant Fest and other venues over the years - ant there are more who do the best they can. We thank them all for their hard work and dedication to educating folks about the Parker Gun.
