The bottom line is this , regardless of what you or I might think as to the variouse "Parker" guns be it originals , Remmy guns or Repro's the only person that matters is the one shelling out the schekels to buy which ever one it may be . Unless of course you're trying to sell said gun and that's a whole new ball of wax .
