Dean I hope I find the primary set too, if it is indeed a 2 bbl set.
Mr. Murphy, I followed the thread about your missing set, now reunited. Congratulations.
If 87131 does turn out to be a 2 bbl set, all I know to do is possibly work backwards from the gentleman from whom I bought the gun. How did he acquire it? If he is willing to give my name/ number to that person, how did that person come across the Parker?
There may be answers to some qustions in the letter. 2 bbl set or no. Name of original purchaser in 1897, etc.
Did I read here or somewhere, that the PGCA will have a booth at the NRA convention in Houston? There are men here who have been collecting and shooting Parkers for longer than I have been on this earth. I was hoping to meet a few in Houston, and I am bringing the CH, to get some input and direction.
Thanks, Robert Dillon
