I wonder if Parker started loosing money on building 8 gauges or the profit margin got alot smaller . I looked at two research letters , one was a grade 2 lifter 36" 8 gauge order in 1877 for $120 . Then a grade 2 hammerless in 1910 36" 8 ga for 120$ , so did they not raise the price of them as the decades went on ?
